Event

In winter it is all too easy to ditch the exercise regimen and hide under the doona. Taking part in the MS Walk and Fun Run will not only get the blood pumping and put the bloom back in your cheeks, it will also make you feel warm inside for contributing to a great cause.

WALKERS:

Join thousands of others for the warm-up exercises and celebrations before making your way around
the scenic Lake Burley Griffin. Stroll or power-walk, travel by wheelchair, pram or stroller, wear serious sports
gear or wacky team costumes. Whatever you choose, you will be helping thousands of Australians living with
multiple sclerosis.

The event will start and finish from Reconciliation Place and follow the easy grade tracks around the lake with a view of Canberra's most iconic landmarks.

Walk routes are 5km and 10km. All walking courses are stroller and wheelchair friendly. Watch out for our roving entertainers along the way. Recover, relax and replenish at the finish line with live music, loads of entertainment for the whole family and a tasty BBQ lunch.

RUNNERS:

Run 5km or 10km around Lake Burley Griffin. All participants receive an electronic timing chip.
Recover, relax and replenish at the finish line with live music, loads of entertainment for the whole family and a
tasty BBQ lunch.

Volunteer

The MS Walk and Fun Run is a very important fundraising event for MS Australia - ACT/NSW/VIC, and simply could not operate without the support of a large team of positive and energetic volunteers.

By volunteering for this event, we will make every effort to ensure the experience is both rewarding and memorable.

All volunteers will be provided with refreshments, an MS event t-shirt, hat, sunscreen and extensive written event and volunteer information, as well as the support of MS staff and Volunteer Team Leaders on event day.

There are a variety of voluntary positions to choose from. The majority of roles range between 3-6 hours and all involve an early morning start. We do our best to ensure that you are allocated the position you are interested in.

You're never too old or young to support this event. Volunteer now to increase your chances of securing your preferred volunteer position.
