Run Army Brisbane
Run Army Brisbane is a community running event supporting frontline service workers and several legacy and emergency service beneficiaries. The event offers on-course displays from the Australian Army and other emergency services, live music from the Australian Army Band and Queensland Police Pipes and Drums, and interactive displays along the route.
Distances available:
- 2.4 km Junior Dash with finisher medal and timed results
- 5 km run and walk with age category results
- 10 km run with overall Run Army Shield for first-place male and female
- 15 km Chief's Challenge
Race pack collection is available across multiple days at Gallipoli Barracks (base access) and South Bank Piazza. Results use a timing chip for personal finish times and include live tracking and age category rankings for the 5 km and 10 km events. Podium medals are presented for top three male and female finishers in the 5 km, 10 km, 15 km Chief’s Challenge, and wheelchair events.
The event permits children (those under 9 must be supported by an adult), prams (starting toward the back), wheelchairs (notify organisers in advance), and dogs on short leashes. Food vendors are present in the race village and nearby cafes. There is bag drop on Sunday morning and accessible spectator viewing along the course and at start and finish areas.
A virtual option runs in March and April for remote participation. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
