The Experience

Prepare for the excitement of the Sydney Marathon on August 31, now recognized as the newest Abbott World Marathon Major, by joining our Sydney Marathon Shakeout 5km run. Scheduled for the 29th and 30th of August, this energizing run is designed to loosen your legs and immerse you in the marathon spirit. Starting at Circular Quay, our friendly guides will lead you through iconic Sydney landmarks, offering a light-hearted and engaging experience that sets the perfect tone for your marathon journey.

Our route begins at the bustling Circular Quay, moving through the historic charm of The Rocks with its cobblestone streets, and into the vibrant precinct of Barangaroo.
