The Carman’s Fun Run 2025 is back — and it’s bigger than ever! After an overwhelming success in Melbourne, the fun run is launching its inaugural Sydney event this year, making it an unforgettable moment for participants across Australia. On 21 September 2025, runners and walkers will take to the paths of Melbourne and Pyrmont, NSW, in a united effort to support the official charity partner Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA).
This beloved event is more than just a race — it’s a celebration of community, resilience, and hope for Australians affected by breast cancer.
Event Overview
What is the Carman’s Fun Run?
Founded with heart by Carman’s Kitchen, this annual fun run brings together thousands of participants in Melbourne to run or walk in support of the charity partner Breast Cancer Network Australia. In 2025, the run is launching its inaugural Sydney course, marking the first time participants in NSW can join the cause locally.
Why Participate in 2025?

It’s not just about the 5k, 10k, or 21-kilometre challenge — it’s about showing your support for those facing breast cancer.
