About the GX Fun Run

Since 2001 the fun run has brought individuals, families, friends, and local businesses together, raising much needed funds for charities that are at the very heart of the community. This year’s charities are Hearing Dogs for Deaf People, Liberty’s Legacy and William’s Fund. The fun run provides the perfect excuse for a family day out with something for everyone and an opportunity to catch up with old friends and make a few new ones.

There will be the usual 5k event for runners aged 7 and over, in four age groups (children, teenagers, adults, veterans), with individual and team entries. New for 2022 is a 1km mini-run for runners aged 6-9, as well as the children’s dashes for 4–5-year-olds.

We’re expecting the attractions to include food stalls, bar, live music, and children’s entertainments, as well as the Run itself. Watch this space for further updates as the date approaches!
