Event Overview
Run for MI Life is a community running event held on Sunday, 18 October 2026 in Walkerston, Queensland. The event is hosted at Walkerston Wests Leagues Club on Branscombe Road and offers three timed distances: a 3km Dash, 5km Fun Run, and 10km Challenge. Start times vary by distance, with the 10km commencing at 6:30am, the 5km at 6:45am, and the 3km at 7:00am. On-the-day registration is available.
What the Course Demands
With three distance options, the event can be approached as a short, controlled effort (3km), a steady aerobic run (5km), or a longer sustained run (10km). A timed format means pacing tends to matter more than it does in untimed fun runs, particularly in the 10km. Prams and dog walkers are welcomed, so athletes should be prepared for shared-course conditions and occasional congestion.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners looking for an organised, timed run with accessible distance choices. The 3km and 5km options work well for newer runners, return-to-run athletes, and walkers, while the 10km is a practical target for runners wanting a longer continuous effort. It also fits athletes who prefer a simple race-day setup with a single event hub and early start times.
