COUCH’s FUN RUN FOR A GOOD CAUSE
THE Cairns Airport IRONMAN Cairns is just around the corner.
There are many ways to participate in the festival – including joining the COUCH Charity Fun Run on Friday, June 10.
There’s no event like IRONMAN. The incredible team brings this phenomenal event to Cairns that locals, national and international guests, enjoy every year.
The Cairns Organisation United for Cancer Health (COUCH) is the official charity partner of the Cairns Airport IRONMAN 70.3 Cairns.
As part of the 2022 Cairns Airport IRONMAN Cairns Festival, the IRONMAN team are putting on a Fun Run on Friday morning, June 10 – and are donating the proceeds to COUCH.
All locals need to do – is get their ticket and join in the fun of the 5km course along the Cairns Esplanade.
The race starts at 7.35am with registration, and check-in from 6am.
Cairns Airport IRONMAN Cairns Race Director Luke Palmer said they were excited to be holding a Fun Run to support COUCH.
“IRONMAN is proud to have chosen The Cairns Organisation United for Cancer Health (COUCH) as the official charity partner of the Cairns Airport IRONMAN 70.3 Cairns,” Mr Palmer said.
“The COUCH Charity Fun Run is sure to be an amazing morning where we can have some fun and celebrate the local Cairns community.”
The COUCH Charity Fun Run’s theme is all about colour. This is because there are many different types of cancer, all represented by a different awareness colour. So COUCH would love for people to wear whatever awareness colour they like or wear them all.
The Fun Run will have prizes for the most colourful participants and a trophy for the winner.
Every participant is making a difference in the lives of locals living with cancer.
