Frequently Asked Questions

Each event sets its own rules. Some allow you to run, walk, or jog the distance. Others accept modified distances or allow you to split the activity across multiple days. Check the event details for specific requirements.

Most virtual running events ask you to submit your results through their app or website. You'll typically need to share proof of your activity — such as a screenshot from Strava, a fitness app, or your watch. The event organisers will then verify and confirm your finish.

Charity events typically ask participants to secure sponsorships (donations) from friends and family based on their participation or performance. You register, then share a fundraising link with your network. Funds go directly to the charity.

Requirements vary by event. Some events ask participants to set a fundraising target, while others allow you to participate with just a registration fee. Check the event details to see what's expected.

Use the search filters on this page to find events by sport type (running, cycling, walking), location (search by suburb or postcode), and date (this weekend, this month, or a custom range). Virtual events can be found by checking the Virtual & Online filter.

Most events have registration fees ranging from free to a few dollars. Some events offer free early-bird registration or family discounts. The registration cost is shown on each event's listing.

Physical events may be postponed or modified due to severe weather, but this is rare. Check your event's terms and conditions or contact the organisers directly for their weather policy. Most virtual events proceed regardless of weather since participants choose their own locations.

Many events offer inclusive options like walking instead of running, different distance categories, or wheelchair-accessible routes. If you have specific accessibility needs, contact the event organisers to discuss what accommodations are available.

5km Running in Australia

A 5K race, also known as a 5-kilometer race, is a road running race with a distance of approximately 3.1 miles (5 kilometers). It is one of the most popular road race distances and is often used as a stepping stone for people new to running or looking to increase their distance over time gradually. In addition, many running events, such as charity runs and community events, include a 5K race as an option for participants. 5Ks are also popular as a timed event for runners who try to finish it in a fast time.

Training for a 5K race typically involves gradually increasing the distance of one's runs over time, emphasising building up endurance and developing good running form. A typical training plan for a 5K would involve running shorter distances at first and gradually building up to running the entire 5 kilometres. Speed work or interval training can also be included to improve performance. Some runners also incorporate strength training and stretching exercises to help prevent injuries.

Many 5K races are also organised on charity causes and are non-competitive, participatory events. Participants often wear costumes and walk or run the course rather than race against the clock.
