Event Details
Course Description
The 8.5 km Red Run follows wide fire‑trail loops around the forested shores of Enoggera Reservoir in D’Aguilar National Park. Expect a mix of easy dirt tracks, short sharp hills and occasional rough sections that showcase eucalypt‑scented bushland and lake views. Water stations are positioned roughly every 2–3 km, and experienced support staff are stationed along the route. The course is not timed, making it a relaxed challenge for runners, joggers and walkers alike, with an estimated finish time of about two hours for most participants.
