The McGrath Launceston Running Festival

Studies show that regular walking and running can help prevent obesity, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and some cancers. That's why we're thrilled to be this year's charity partner for the McGrath Launceston Running Festival.

Dr Sara Young and CEO Vanessa Cahoon.

Dr Sarah Young from the Research team will join our CEO, Vanessa Cahoon, for the 10km run with all donations supporting our medical research programs and patient care initiatives. It's a fantastic opportunity for individuals and teams to get involved, stay active, and make a meaningful impact on our community.

Date: Sunday, June 2
