Register Today for the Run For Freedom to run or walk the 4km or 8km course around Melbourne's iconic Tan Track, and show your support for a National Commemoration Day for the Victims of Communism. The 8km run starts at 8am and the 4km run or walk starts at 10am.

This is your chance to join with others in remembering the victims of communism and giving hope to those still oppressed under communist regimes today.

Collectively, communist states killed 100 million people in the 20th century according to The Black Book of Communism. Between 1948 to 2012, more than 766,000 refugees and humanitarian entrants were settled in Australia according to the Refugee Council of Australia, many of these were escaping communism.

Citizens of China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea and Vietnam are still living under communist oppression today. Show them you care! Join the run!
