Brighton Running Festival

Decker Park serves as the starting point for a run along the waterfront, tracing the edge of Moreton Bay between Brighton and Sandgate, with the course extending towards Shorncliffe Pier. The Brighton Running Festival offers a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere by the water, while its "pancake-flat terrain" also allows faster runners to establish a consistent pace. Participants can anticipate "spectacular ocean views," "refreshing sea breezes," and the "sparkling waters of Moreton Bay" contributing to a pleasant mood. Much of the route utilizes the waterfront path, making it suitable for beginners, first-time participants, families, and experienced runners aiming for a straightforward performance. The Family Dash ensures children have an active role in the event, which is beneficial when the finish area is bustling with young participants. A point to note: the pathway is shared, so be aware of pedestrians and cyclists, and maintain focus.
