Athletics Victoria XCR 9: 15K Road Race 2026

The Athletics Victoria XCR 9: 15K Road Race takes place at Kevin Bartlett Reserve in Burnley, east of central Melbourne. This event is a road round of Athletics Victoria’s XCR series, featuring a 15km race as the primary event and a 4km option included in the same program. The course is flat, running alongside the Yarra River, making it suitable for runners aiming for a fast road race or assessing their fitness before the warmer racing season. The 15km field is divided by anticipated finish times, with cutoffs applied to the longer race. Participants must be born in 2015 or earlier. Package holders are required to register via the Athletics Victoria portal for this round. Dogs are prohibited at the venue.
