Run, walk or volunteer this May

We’re proud to once again be named the preferred charity for the Great Ocean Road Running Festival, returning this May.

If 2026 is the year you’re ready to take on a new challenge, there are some epic options on offer — including the 60km Ecosa Marathon and the 44km Melrose Marathon. Be quick though, places are filling fast.

Prefer something a little more relaxed? You can choose from the 23km Brooks Half Marathon, the 14km Paradise Run, the 12km Trail Run, or the SriLankan Airlines 6km Run.

Walking options are also available, with 5km and 10km walks, and younger runners can get involved too with the 1.5km Kids Gallop.

The Apollo Bay Health Foundation plays a key role in coordinating volunteers for the festival, so even if running isn’t your thing, there are plenty of ways to be part of this iconic event.

With events for all ages and abilities, there truly is something for everyone at the Great Ocean Road Running Festival.
