BE THE PART OF THE CREW
THAT MAKES IT ALL                     

Happen

Every year, over 800 volunteers turn up before sunrise to make sure 20,000 runners have the race of their lives.

They staff the aid stations, cheer the stragglers, hand out the medals and hold the whole thing together. If you've ever watched the Brisbane Marathon Festival and thought “I want to be part of this”, this is how.
