Bridge to Brisbane trail
The annual Sunday Mail Transurban Bridge to Brisbane event has two race options – 5 kilometres or 10 kilometres.
Designed for beginners, the 5-kilometre course starts in Hamilton, and heads along Brisbane River, to end in the iconic Brisbane Showgrounds, Bowen Hills.
The 10-kilometre course (nicknamed ‘the ultimate challenge’) kicks off at the base of the Gateway Bridge, with the course giving runners a chance to run over the bridge and to the Brisbane Showgrounds.
The great thing about this event is that you can raise funds for a worthy cause and share the love. Get fit and feel good!

Start points: 5-kilometre route starts at Hercules Street Park, Hamilton; 10-kilometre route starts at the base of the Gateway Bridge, Murarrie
