Bridge to Brisbane

Queensland it’s time to get your trainers ready! 

The Sunday Mail Suncorp Bank Bridge to Brisbane is here and will be held on Sunday September 2, 2012. Only three weeks remain to enter this year’s 16th annual event.

The fun run caters for Queenslanders of all ages and fitness levels offering a 10km course for serious competitors and a 5km course for those up for a Sunday stroll.

The 10km event will commence on the Sir Leo Hielscher Bridge - South (formerly Gateway Bridge), travel along Kingsford Smith Drive, continue along the Inner City Bypass (ICB), exit onto Mayne Street, then into RNA Showground.

The 5km event will start from Hamilton Recreational Reserve on Remora Road at Portside, Hamilton. The course will turn left onto Kingsford Smith Drive and follow the last 5km of the 10km event.

For the first time ever Brisbane’s biggest fun run will offer all participants free transport.

Following the fun run, the Race Village will come alive with entertainment, food and expo stalls for participants and spectators alike until midday at the RNA Showgrounds. This will include live entertainment from one of Australia’s great singer songwriters and Kids Helpline patron Vanessa Amorosi and her band.

With plenty of prizes up for grabs this year, participants have the chance to win a Suzuki Alto GLX Manual, complements of The Sunday Mail simply by entering.

Entries are open for both individuals and teams to register and help raise funds for event charity partner Kids Helpline.
