Sandringham receives a full Halloween makeover: a flat, fast course featuring zombie pacers instead of standard pace groups. The atmosphere leans towards a monster mash rather than a serious road race, yet runners aiming for a personal best have a clear incentive to participate. The guiding principle is “Keep your Pace, or Lose your Race!”, a theme the Zombie Run 10K & 5K embraces wholeheartedly. You select your target time and start in the corresponding wave, then aim to “beat the zombie pacers” before they reach the finish. Walkers and families can join the main group at the back, while quicker runners can pursue the unique SURVIVOR medal instead of the ZOMBIE/INFECTED medal. Costumes are welcome, temporary tattoos complement the theme, and the finish promises Halloween-themed enjoyment without becoming a contact sport.

Marina Square at Wentworth Point gives this run a local feel before the field heads for the Bennelong Bridge. The BBBRun - Billbergia Bennelong Bridge Run is a community event where runners, walkers, families, wheelchair racers, and frame runners share the same morning, with the waterfront suburbs setting the scene. The main pull is crossing Bennelong Bridge between Wentworth Point and Rhodes, a piece of "environmentally sustainable transport infrastructure" that also serves as a race landmark. Expect paved, urban running around waterfront suburbs rather than a remote escape, with a finish that suits people staying around Marina Square afterward. It has a friendly calendar-race character: practical, inclusive, and built around active living as much as fast times.

The Great North Walk Ultras is a trail running series in Sydney, New South Wales, offering races from short trail runs to full ultra distances. It takes place in late October with 10K, 30K, 50K, 80K, 100K, and 162.5K options, allowing runners to select anything from a challenging morning on the trails to a 100-mile-style outing. Even the shorter races present significant elevation: the 10K covers 9.6 km with 329 m of climbing, the 30K covers 29.2 km with 770 m, and the 50K is approximately 50 km with around 1,500 m of ascent. The course crosses wild paths around Sydney, featuring waterfalls and cliff trails that lend the race a more rugged character than a road ultra. The longer events include substantial climbing: the 80K has approximately 2,560 m of gain, the 100K has about 3,230 m, and the 162.5K has around 5,100 m. The 30K and 50K also serve as qualifiers for Six Foot Track, increasing their appeal to Australian trail runners. Past events attracted over 300 runners in both the 50K and 162.5K, and more than 200 in the 80K and 100K distances.

Fig Tree Flat, also called Willow Tree Flat, is located within Royal National Park, beyond Audley, hosting the Sri Chinmoy Sydney Series – Royal National Park Trail Runs. This event marks the Series finale and offers a practical trail running day. Participants should park near the start/finish, handle the national park vehicle entry fee, and prepare for running on dirt paths beneath the trees. The races feature marked trail courses through forested areas of the park. The primary appeal lies in the park's terrain: shaded paths, varied surfaces, and sufficient trail complexity to maintain runner engagement. Wave starts are employed to manage participant flow, and a shuttle service operates from Loftus Station for those not arriving by car. A notable detail is the entry process: online registration concludes at 5pm the day prior to each race, with on-site entries available at the venue for an increased cost.

Race 3, the flat closer in a three-race series, starts at Silverwater Park, with the route heading out by the Parramatta River. It has the feel of a practical club-style morning rather than a showpiece: chip timing, steady paths, and a course that is "ideal for chasing personal bests" if your legs are there. The running follows the river walk and Louise Sauvage Pathway toward Sydney Olympic Park, mostly road and shared-use path, so expect a rhythm course more than a hill fight. You will see quicker runners, first-timers, and families around the Family Dash, and the finish has the usual useful bits: a unique themed medal, snacks, sponsor giveaways, and a digital certificate.

The Sri Chinmoy Sydney Series 4 begins near Fig Tree Flat, also known as Willow Tree Flat, beyond Audley in the Royal National Park, south of Sydney. This morning run and walk event offers six distances: marathon, half marathon, 10km, 7km, 5km, and 4km. The marathon starts first at 06:00, followed by the 10km, 5km, and half marathon at 07:00, and the 7km and 4km at 08:00. Entry fees range from $13 for the 4km and 5km to $47 for the marathon, considered modest for a road race. The longer races are held on Lady Carrington Drive, providing a sense of an out-and-back course through the park for the marathon and half marathon participants, unlike a city-road course. All distances are run on natural surfaces with some undulating sections, making it a more rugged event than a flat fun run. The Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team organizes it with the same straightforward approach used throughout the Sydney Series: participants register, attach their number, and proceed with the course. The broader series includes events at locations like Iron Cove and originated with a race at Centennial Park before expanding to other Sydney running venues.
