About this event

Connor’s Run is a major Melbourne fundraising event supporting children with brain cancer, bringing together a one-day fun run and a month-long participation option called Your Way Any Day during September. It celebrates courage, community and “your awesomeness”, and all registrations include the 2026 limited-edition tee.

The Melbourne event is scheduled for Sunday 13 September 2026, with the main finish party at the Alexander Gardens area. Publicly listed course options include a 3km loop in the city, a 9.6km route from St Kilda and an 18.8km route from Hampton, giving participants a choice of distances and start locations.

Connor’s Run is the largest fundraising event for the Robert Connor Dawes Foundation, which supports world-class research, family care and development initiatives for children with brain cancer. It is known as a fast, flat road event and is designed to welcome runners and walkers of different ages and abilities.
