Roo Run & Grommet Gallop
Event location
Description
The Roo Run & Grommet Gallop takes place on Saturday, 27 December 2025 at Point Roadknight, Anglesea, VIC, offering a range of distances to suit all ages and abilities.
The event features the 8km and 4km Roo Run along with the 1.6km Grommet Gallop, set against the stunning backdrop of the Surf Coast. Participants will experience a scenic route through coastal hinterland, along hard-packed sand, and through the picturesque river precinct, showcasing the natural beauty of Anglesea.
Designed for runners and walkers of all levels—from seasoned athletes to families and children—the Grommet Gallop is a fun, non-competitive event encouraging young participants to enjoy the outdoors with friends and family. All finishers receive a Roo Run medal and a complimentary sausage from the BBQ.
In 2025, the event also includes the Janet Jones Classic, an all-abilities run held alongside the Grommet Gallop, promoting inclusivity and community spirit.
