    Melbourne’s favourite fun run is back in 2024

    Date:

    Melbourne’s most beloved fun run, the Herald Sun / Transurban Run For The Kids, is back for its 19th year on Sunday 17 March 2024. 

    The Herald Sun/Transurban Run For The Kids is an iconic event on the fun run calendar. Each year, Transurban opens CityLink for the race – both a short (4.7km) and long course (14.4km) – and gives the community the opportunity to run or walk a great course to raise vital funds for the Royal Children’s Hospital. 

    Over the years, the event has raised over $21.6 million for the Good Friday Appeal for health infrastructure to support children and young people.
