Taking in the beautiful surroundings of the Parramatta Valley Cycleway between George Kendall Riverside Park and Western Sydney University, choose from a 10km, 5km or 2km (Family Dash) distance. All courses are flat and run adjacent to the Parramatta River – making it the perfect course for a personal best or marking the first race for beginners.
Prizes will be rewarded for teams from social run clubs based on personal bests, not necessarily the fastest! We therefore encourage people of all abilities to get involved; whether you are an avid runner, occasional jogger or leisurely walker – everyone has a chance of winning.
All event finishers will receive a themed medal, post-race snack, sponsor giveaways and a finisher certificate.

DO YOU TRAIN WITH A SOCIAL RUN CLUB?
At any Race Hub Australia event, every entrant is eligible to win the big prize. We’re different from other races, in the fact that we award prizes based on overall improvement to individual and team personal bests.
To be eligible for the team prize, you must have a current personal best, be a current member of a running club (social running clubs included), be in an entering team of 4+ runners who have all joined Race Hub Australia’s Strava group.
For example, four members of Rachel’s Runners have entered Race Hub’s inaugural Parramatta 10km event. Prior to the event those four members had an average PB between them of 52 minutes and 30 seconds. At completion of the Race Hub event, they smashed their PB and now have an average PB of 50 minutes and 30 seconds. Therefore their average improvement within the team is 2 minutes (don’t worry, leave the maths with us).
WANT TO VOLUNTEER?
We are always on the lookout for volunteers on race day to help out with course marshalling and registration. It’s a great way to experience the buzz of race day without having to tie up the laces. In addition to being amongst the energy of the race, Race Hub Australia are delighted to offer volunteers the following as a thank you for their help on the day:
- Free event t-shirt
- Free entry to any future race
- Post event breakfast with staff and volunteers
