Get your glow on! Register today for Maroondah Night Run

The much-loved Maroondah Night Run is back! Come and join in the fun at Ringwood Golf on Friday 26 March 2021.

Registrations are now open for the Maroondah Night Run - a 5km glow-filled evening designed for all ages and athletic abilities.

To ensure a COVID-safe event, guidelines will be in place. Interested participants are advised to familiarise themselves with COVID-safety and race rules prior to the event.

Jubilee Ward Councillor Mike Symon encouraged the community to get on board the event which invites participants to wear anything that glows and either walk or run the 5km through the golf course.

“We’ve had so much fun with this event in previous years. Once the sun has set, runners and walkers will complete a 5km course that sweeps through 18 holes of the Ringwood Golf Course, illuminated by glow lights,” Cr Symon said.

“Even if you are regular golfer, the Maroondah Night Run is a great opportunity to see Ringwood Golf in a whole different light, and if you have never walked or run on the fairways then this event is your chance,” Cr Symon said.

“Maroondah Night Run was one of the many events cancelled last year due to COVID-19 restrictions, so it is exciting to be able to offer this popular event again and support the Victorian Government’s Get Active Victoria campaign, which is all about improving physical and mental wellbeing by staying active,” he said.

“It’s recommended that adults do at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day, while children need at least 60 minutes or more of daily exercise. Any type of physical activity counts, even incidental activity like walking up the stairs or to the bus stop,” Cr Symon said.

Every entrant who completes the course will receive a finisher’s ribbon. Water stations will be provided along the course as well as healthy refreshments at the end of the race to keep everyone well-fuelled and hydrated during the event.

Please note that in preparation for this event, Ringwood Golf Course will be closed from 1.30pm (18 holes) and at 3.30pm (9 holes).

Maroondah Night Run will take place from 7pm to 9pm at Ringwood Golf, 352 Canterbury Road, Ringwood.

Bookings to this event can be made online or by phoning 1300 88 22 33.
