About the race
The Georges River Festival of the Feet is an annual community running festival hosted by Western Districts Joggers & Harriers at Lake Gillawarna in Mirambeena Regional Park, Georges Hall, near Bankstown. The event features multiple race distances that start and finish at the club house located near the pedestrian bridge on Henry Lawson Drive. Courses follow pathways around lakes and along the Georges River with mostly paved surfaces and some short grass sections.
Distances offered:
- 3 km
- 7 km
- 14 km
- 21.1 km (half marathon)
Entries include individual, team and family options. The 7 km race allows teams of up to six with the fastest four counted. Children under five must be accompanied by an adult in the 3 km event. Prams are permitted only in the 3 km race and must start at the back of the field. Dogs are not permitted on course but may remain leashed in the start precinct. Drink stations are located at several points on course. All finishers receive a medal; trophies are awarded for first, second and third male and female placings in each event and for the first team in the 7 km. The event supports named charities and is run by volunteers. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
