Tamara Private Hospital Tamworth Running Festival
The Tamara Private Hospital Tamworth Running Festival is held in Tamworth, New South Wales, with the event location on Kable Avenue. The festival includes several races and a community walk, and dates to an original event first run in 1974. It was started by three locals and is noted as the third oldest Fun Run in New South Wales.
The 1974 course began outside Tamworth Town Hall, ran down Peel Street, included a hilly section in East Tamworth and returned to No 1 Oval. The original route crossed the New England Highway three times; the course layout has changed since then.
