Canberra / ACT Running Events

Canberra is one of Australia's best-kept running secrets - the loop around Lake Burley Griffin is a runner's rite of passage, the bush capital is ringed by nature reserves and trails, and the cool, dry climate makes for crisp racing. From the autumn marathon season to the Stromlo trails, the ACT punches well above its size.

Whether you're after a first 5km fun run, a lakeside 10km, a half marathon or the full marathon, filter the calendar below by distance, date or venue. Just over the border? NSW fun runs covers the surrounding region.
