Unity Foundation fun Run 2009
When: Sunday 22nd February 2009
Location: The Tan, Botanical Gardens, Melbourne (Melway Ref 2F J9)
Distance: 4km or 8km
The 2009 Unity Fun Run encourages people of all ages and abilities to get out and exercise while raising money for a good cause at the same time! You can choose between either 4km or 8km course to run/walk and the unique component of this Fun Run is that it also offers a team event where local, state and elite athletes from the AFL, NRL, Basketball and Netball run against each other to compete for a number of prizes. The concept encourages teams to compete against other teams in their local league as well as competing against current and former elite athletes.
At the conclusion of the Fun Run a Family Day at Tom's Block will be held with activities for the whole family including traditional Aboriginal games, music from local performers and it also allows people the opportunity to learn more about the work of the Unity Foundation in bridging the gaps in homelessness, suicide, domestic violence, life expectancy, health and other issues faced by Indigenous people.
