About this race

Eltham North Reserve shapes this event: parkland paths, the Diamond Creek Trail, and a finish near the Eltham North Adventure Playground. Run for the Firies is a community fun run and walk with a clear purpose, the primary fundraising initiative for the Research and Kangaroo Ground Volunteer Fire Brigades, supporting crews who protect the surrounding communities. The longer course involves two laps of the scenic 10.6km course, winding through Eltham North parkland, climbing Allendale Road, then following the historic aqueduct toward Research before returning via Main Road Eltham. Shorter options stay closer to the natural beauty of Eltham North parkland along Diamond Creek Trail, suiting runners, walkers, families, volunteers, and locals who want their race entry to contribute to a good cause.
