Brisbane Road Runners Race: 5K, 10K & 15K

From the SBSC Clubhouse at Orleigh Park, this is a straightforward club run on the regular course beside the Brisbane River. It has the feel of a Brisbane Road Runners morning rather than a large-event production: members use their usual bibs, visitors collect a temporary one, and everyone sorts themselves out early. The course starts and finishes near the clubhouse, with water tables set up by the line and toilets at Orleigh Park and the clubhouse. Be organised: "No late entries or on-the-day registration," and "Be at the start line by 5:50 am for safety briefing." The crowd is BRRC members and visitors, and the small rituals are practical ones: bring your own water, hand back the visitor bib, then grab the post-run bananas; on championship days, there is free coffee too.
