Mothers Day Classic Fun Run/Walk - Kingaroy

The annual Mother's Day Classic Community Fun Run / Walk this morning to raise funds for breast cancer research is being organised today in Kingaroy by Zarly Anne's Fitness. The Mother's Day Classic was established in 1998. Its purpose is to raise money for breast cancer research, to increase awareness of breast cancer within the community and to support and remember those affected by breast cancer. The Classic is a national event which was originally brought to the South Burnett by the Go Getta Girls running club in 2012. This is a fun morning with either a 4k walk/run or a 8k run on offer. Participants will follow a course from Memorial Park along Haly Street and West Streets with temporary road closures, supervised by SES and police - a completely safe event. The emphasis is on fun, community spirit and participation. The fun day will begin at 7:00am in Memorial Park and continue to around 11:00am. For more information, phone Zarly Anne on 0478-006-564. To register, simply turn up at 7:00am with the proper fee. You read about how last year's Classic went (and see photos) on our website.
