What is the RunNSW Virtual Series?

VIEW “A GUIDE TO PARTICIPATING IN THE GREATER BANK CASINO VIRTUAL FUN RUN"

The purpose of the Greater Bank Casino Virtual Fun Run is to keep the running community in the region connected and provide an alternate event for that community since the cancellation of the actual Fun Run.

The virtual run is open for all runners/walkers across New South Wales to enter, however those who live in the Northern Rivers region (defined as Tenterfield in the West, to Ballina in the East, to Kingscliff in the North, to Grafton in the South), will receive additional benefits, as the local regional participants of the Greater Bank Casino Virtual Fun Run.

The Greater Bank Casino Virtual Fun Run involves completing either a 10km, 5km, or 2km run/walk/wheel between 5:00am, Sunday 20^th September, and 11:59pm, Sunday 27^th September. After completing your run/walk, you simply need to submit your result with supporting evidence of your run/walk, and then wait for us to get in touch with you!
