Be a superhero! Start Father’s Day with the Bendigo’s ‘Run For Dad’ fun run at Bendigo Racecourse this Sunday September 4.
Run For Dad is designed to raise your heart rate and much-needed funds for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
Organisers are calling on families from across Central Victoria to dress up as their favourite superhero and get along to this fun family event to support the heroes fighting prostate cancer.
The day kicks off at 10am with options to walk or run one lap (3.75kms) or two laps (7.5kms).
After your run, enjoy a free breakfast provided by some of the local Rotary Clubs plus entertainment provided by the Eaglehawk Brass Band.
Castlemaine Rotary Club member Trudi O’Donnell said the local club is proud to throw its support behind this important fundraising event, providing support and people power on the day.
In the lead up to the event on Wednesday night the local club also hosted a visit from Prostate Cancer Nurse Dave Heath from Bendigo who spoke to the local group about Prostate Cancer Awareness.
Rotarian Phillip Hay, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer three months ago, was also in attendance and will be among those participating in the walk with his daughter this Sunday.
