City2Surf Fun Run
Only 7 days to go for the popular annual fundraising City to Surf Fun Run event to be held this coming Sunday 10th August.
The City2Surf is a great fun family day filled with colour and spirit which attracts up to 60,000 people. With this many people expected and road closures and limited parking here are some helpful transport options.
The race starts at 9am. The earlier you arrive, the closer you will be placed to the front of your Start group.
The Sun-Herald City2Surf is 14km in distance starting at the intersection of Park and College streets heading up William Street and through the tunnel at Kings Cross. Continues out along New South Head Road towards Rose Bay, then up RSVP City2Surf ‘Heartbreak Hill’ (halfway point).
The course turns the corner at Dover Heights into Old South Head Road, left into Military Road and then down the hill to Bondi Beach and The Sun-Herald straight to finish at Australia’s most famous beach (see map). Finish line located on Queen Elizabeth Drive at the southern end of the Bondi Pavilion.
