Welcome to Canberra Runners

Canberra Runners (formerly YMCA Canberra Runners Club) is Canberra’s largest running organisation and offers events and activities for runners of all ages and abilities. At Canberra Runners we aim to:

• encourage and promote the sport of running in the Canberra region

• conduct a range of running activities, events, and training

• promote active lifestyles by encouraging broad participation in social and competitive running activities in an inclusive and supportive manner.

Canberra Runners holds over 90 races each year ranging from 1.6 km races to half marathons and a 100 km multi-stage event. Our headline events include Capital to Coast, the Canberra Half Marathon, and the Thredbo Fun and Fitness Week.

We also offer training programs for beginner runners looking to run their first 5 kms, through to runners wanting to step up to half marathon distance (21.1 kms).

If you’re just looking for someone to run with Canberra Runners also offers group runs with the TTS group meeting on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings, and Sunday Runners on Sunday mornings.
