EVENT INFORMATION:
May the 4th is one of the most internationally recognised holidays around the world. Not just a celebration of Star Wars, it celebrates Sci-Fi, and, perhaps more importantly, the inner geek in all of us. So, whether you’re of the Star Wars/Star Trek/Firefly debate or simply love all things geek, the Geek Run is for you!
The Geek Run offers a rare evening run.

The Geek Run uses a course in the City of Norwood, Payneham, & St Peters. The course is a 5km loop along the river, a quiet scene in shady forestry. All distances less than 5km will do a shortened loop and all distances more than 5km will do multiple loops.
