Tasmanian distance running fans can rejoice, with the return of the biggest running event in Launceston.
Epic Events and Marketing, a Tasmanian business specialising in mass participation sporting events and sports media has acquired the event from Sydney based business Pont3.
“We’re passionate about health and fitness, particularly through running. Along with many, we were saddened that the 2018 edition wasn’t able to go ahead. We have big plans for the Tasmanian Running Festival future,” Managing Director of Epic, Richard Welsh said.
Among the changes, will be a new program for the day, which has been known for a fast 10km race, since it began in 2007. The event offerings for 2020 will include;
The famous Launceston 10, proudly brought to you in 2020 by C5 Pro -Solutions - Excellence in High Voltage Engineering Design and Testing. Recognised internationally as a flat, fast and friendly 10km event. An ideal course to do your fastest 10km.
