2XU Wellness Run

Join us for the 2024 2XU Wellness Run on Sunday, December 1st, at Catani Gardens, St Kilda. This popular annual event brings together runners, joggers, and walkers of all abilities to support Beyond Blue in their mission to improve mental health. Choose from distances of 5km, 10km, or 21.1km, and help raise $500,000 for Beyond Blue’s 24/7 Support Services. Every dollar raised makes a difference, with $66 helping a qualified mental health counsellor answer a call any time of the day or night.

This year’s 2XU Wellness Run promises an inspiring atmosphere, with ambassadors sharing their personal stories and motivations for running. Whether you’re aiming to set a new personal best, enjoy a scenic route, or support an important cause, this event is a fantastic way to get involved and give back.
