After a fantastic 10th Anniversary, the Roo Run returns bigger and better than ever in 2024. From humble beginnings to a "bucket list" Summer event the Roo Run has grown up and this year celebrates its 11th year. Family, Fun and Community are still at the heart of our event and we hope this year will be our biggest yet.

So whether you’re a seasoned campaigner, a weekend jogger, social walker or just starting out your running career, the Soulful Living 8km Roo Run, Anglesea and District Community Bank 4km Roo Run and the Anglesea Medical Centre Grommets Gallop offers something for everyone in one of the most scenic locations you could imagine.

This year with the help of the Anglesea Medical Centre we are also continuing the Janet Jones Classic (an all abilities event) to be run in conjunction with the Grommets Gallop. The event has grown out of the participation of the Starfish Nippers Run who are now encouraging more all abilities participants to join them on the run.
