Fyansford Four Bridges 5km 2026

The Fyansford Four Bridges 5km is a 5 km handicap run held in Fyansford, Victoria. It begins and ends at Peter McCann Memorial Gardens, adjacent to the Fyansford Hotel. The Geelong Cross Country Club organizes this event as a club race, with Good.All Protein as a sponsor. Its short distance is suitable for new runners, and the handicap system provides a shared competition for club and invitation runners, differing from a standard fastest-to-finish race. The course winds through the historic Fyansford area near Geelong, utilizing paths along the Barwon River and local streets. The race's name highlights a key feature: participants cross four bridges within the 5 km circuit. This design creates a focused, location-specific atmosphere, integrating the gardens, hotel, river, streets, and bridges into a concise club event.
