Challenge yourself by carrying the load for women and children affected by domestic and family violence.

In an ideal world, women and children would live safely in the comfort and security of their own homes. However, we know this is not always the case. Some women and children are living in fear, and are confronted with poverty and homelessness. Many women are forced to flee their homes quickly, in search of safety with just a bag on their back.

We want to recognise their bravery and determination in taking this life changing step. To represent and acknowledge the struggle of these women and children we are asking you to run or walk 4k's carrying you chosen weight.

So what do you get?

- A 4k stretch of beach

- A sandbag of your chosen weight (6 categories to choose from)

- A timing device to compete against your weight and age categories

-Professional race coordinated with the help of Yumigo and Event Strategies

and

- An opportunity to help women and kids affected by domestic violence

IT'S UP TO YOU HOW YOU CARRY THE WEIGHT, BUT IF YOU PREFER, BRING AN EMPTY BACKPACK TO PLACE THE SANDBAG IN FOR EVEN WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION ON YOUR BACK.

REGISTER A TEAM OF FIVE, SET UP A FUNDRAISING PAGE, RAISE $1000 OR MORE AND HAVE YOUR REGISTRATION COSTS REIMIBURSED TO YOU!

*Check in to this event will be open from 7am. Race start time is 8.30am.
