The 22nd Bellarine Rail Trail Run (17 or 34kms) will be held on Sunday August 23, 2026 as an out & back course from Queenscliff to Drysdale Railway Station & return (34km) or one-way Drysdale to Queenscliff (17km) along the BRT. The trail is tremendously scenic and ideal for running being wide, well marked and all on smooth, unsealed paths aside from the 4.5kms at the Queenscliff end (sealed). It is an ideal training run for the Geelong Running Festival & Melbourne Marathon events.
The course is relatively traffic free, but you do have to cross some major roads & the railway line, so please take care. The trail is also open to the general public and it is important that their use is not affected by the event. For this reason, this is NOT A RACE - there are no prizes for finishing first!
Entries capped at 300 runners

U24 Safety To Sorrento Marathon Swim Event
The U24 event is held in February on a Saturday with favourable outgoing tides.
The event aims to start early in the morning and lasts 9 hours.
A cutoff occurs 9 hours after first start so swimmers don't encounter an incoming tide.
All swimmers require a paddler for navigation and management of swimmer safety and feeds.
All swimmers require land support for drop off, transport of gear to finish, potential evacuation and to join the celebrations at the finish
parkrun is such a simple concept: turn up every Saturday and volunteer, walk, jog or run 5k.

Geelong Runners Club began in February 2019 when Tristan and Leigh saw a gap in the local running landscape and decided to fill it. They wanted a free, social space where runners from Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula could gather without pressure or pace requirements. Today, around 900 members strong, the crew welcomes everyone from veterans to beginners. The philosophy is simple: zero competition, genuine inclusion, and the pure pleasure of running together along the Geelong coastline. Thursday evenings at Eastern Beach Carpark and Saturday mornings at Balyang Sanctuary are the signature runs, each offering its own rhythm and community vibe.
AM:PM.RC started in Melbourne in December 2014 when Nicholas, Elizabeth, Dan, and Ben decided to build a crew worth showing up for, twice a week, every week. Nearly a decade on, around thirty members from all backgrounds, indigenous, immigrant, local, and travelling, gather under their motto, Strength to Strength. The philosophy is straightforward: individual progress and collective growth are the same thing. Show up, contribute, support, and the whole crew moves forward together. Art, music, and photography thread through the community alongside the running. Tuesday evenings find them at the iconic Tan Track, Thursday mornings at Princes Park. Two routes, two moods, one crew that has been turning up since 2014.
