About this race
The Ocean Grove Surf Lifesaving Club on Surf Beach Road serves as the start and finish for the Ocean Grove 10km. This is a Geelong Cross Country Club event, a "club-organised handicap race" with the Australian Acupuncture Centre as sponsor, giving it the feel of a local running calendar fixture rather than a large-scale festival.
The handicap format is the main distinguishing feature, designed to "level the playing field for runners of all abilities." This means the focus is less on who finishes first from the start. Club members will be familiar with the system, while non-club members can participate as "invitation runners" for a higher entry fee, receiving a timed run but not competing for handicap prize money or fastest-time awards. The event offers a straightforward, runner-focused morning, using the surf club finish as a clear coastal marker.
