Beach Run and Bunnings Fundraiser

February 17th, 2012 admin No comments

This Sunday we are having our regular beach run from Justin’s Park, Burleigh Heads. Meet at 6:15am for a 6:30am start. There will be plenty of options, so no matter what you are training for there will be a run to suit.

At 9am until 3:30pm we are holding a fundraiser sausage sizzle at Bunnings. Helpers are still required, so just come along at anytime or get in contact with a committee member. You won’t regret it. It will be the most fun you can have when not running!
