1000km For Wildlife's thoughts:

A friend of mine wanted to enter her first race, and we decided to combine Run Melbourne with a shopping trip and entered the 5km run! The 5km starts near Federation Square with an easy loop past the Shrine of Remembrance, around the the Botanic Gardens and past Rod Laver arena and finish back near where we started.

There wasn’t really an expo for this event, there were a few stalls when we picked up our race bib along with some race merchandise.

We walked to the start line, which had a great atmosphere! There was a great DJ doing a crazy fun warm up. The start line is close to Federation Square, making it easy for those taking public transport to the start line. If you are travelling to Melbourne, there are plenty of motels close to the start line.

At the end you get some race bling, with sponsors giving protein packets and water for post event refueling.

I would definitely recommend this race to anyone - it has a great atmosphere, great scenery along the way and was lots of fun!
