Participants are invited to join the Big Melbourne Kilt Run on the Tan in support of the Heart Foundation, helping raise vital funds to combat heart disease, which claims the lives of 79 Australians every day. Whether participants are seasoned athletes or simply enjoy a run, walk, or roll outdoors, this fun and festive event offers an opportunity to get active while raising awareness for heart health. By registering, participants can take on the ‘Kilt Runners’ fundraising challenge and encourage family and friends to sponsor their involvement. Attendees are encouraged to wear a kilt, tartan, or Brave Heart face paint, and enjoy the lively atmosphere with Highland dancers, pipers, and the Happy Heart mascot. The first three finishers in each category will receive medals, with official race certificates provided by Tomato Timing, while children will be awarded participation certificates and small prizes. It’s a day of fitness, fun, and fundraising for a great cause.
