44th Mindfull Aus Pichi Richi Marathon

First Street serves as the center for the 44th Mindfull Aus Pichi Richi Marathon. This established local race focuses on the Pichi Richi community, not on elaborate race-day displays. After more than forty years, it continues to be described as a "family fun tradition." Fundraising for Mindfull Aus and support from local organizations and companies are integral to the event. The point-to-point nature is evident at the start locations: Standpipe Golf Motor Inn on Stuart Highway, Saltia, near Old Willows Brewery for the 5km point, and Silo Road for the youngest participants. A diverse group is expected, including runners, walkers, juniors, families, and charity advocates. The road will be closed from Quorn towards Stirling North, with participants "mixing, mingling, keeping fit and supporting charity" as they progress.
