Event Overview
Wishlist Ks 4 Cancer Fun Run is scheduled for Sunday, 17 May 2026 at Lake Kawana on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland. Organised by Wishlist (Sunshine Coast Health Foundation), the event is an annual fundraising run/walk supporting Sunshine Coast cancer patients and their families. Distances listed include 2.5km, 5km, and 10km, with start times shown for each distance on race morning. Event details are noted as subject to change as updates are released.
What the Course Demands
The course is described as a flat loop around Lake Kawana with continuous waterfront views, starting near the Sunshine Coast Stadium precinct at Bokarina. With longer and shorter options, pacing and smooth rhythm matter more than climbing strength. The route is set up to suit a broad range of abilities, and the shorter distances are listed as dog-friendly on lead. Spectator access is noted as good around the lake.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners and walkers who want a straightforward race-day format with multiple distance choices in one venue. The 2.5km and 5km options fit first-time participants and families, while the 10km provides a longer effort for those building consistency. Athletes who prefer flatter courses and predictable execution, including those returning to running, are likely to find the setup manageable.
