Why Run Brisbane? The phenomenon of
a
marathon in Brisbane began almost 30 years ago whenthe great Robert de
Castella
won in 1982 at the Commonwealth Games in Brisbane. This heritage has
been
continued over the years, since the inception of Brisbane's only
Marathon event
open to the public in 1992. Over the years the event has evolved from
the Lest
We Forget Marathon through the creation of the Brisbane Running Festival
with
an event for everyone. The Brisbane Running Festival encompasses
mateship, drive
and the ability to achieve all that you thought possible. We welcome you
to the
Brisbane Running Festival 2010 and hope to see you all out there on
Sunday 1st August.
