Brisbane 5km Fun Runs

The 5km is the easiest way into Brisbane's running scene, with free Saturday-morning parkruns along the river and through the city's parks, plus charity fun runs and community events year-round. The mild winter mornings make it one of the most pleasant places in the country to start running.
