Congratulations to all finishers! We hope you had a great race and enjoyed being a part of Australia's premier women's only fun run!

The Sussan Women's Fun Run event weekend this year again included the SUB Women’s Cycle Challenge so we had 5,500 women take part over the course of the weekend. The Sussan Women's Fun Run is one of our favourite events for the season because of the friendly nature and fun attitude of all the participants – smiling faces, mothers, daughters and friends!

SuperSprint would like to thank all those participants who embraced the Go-Fundraise concept in raising money for the Breast Cancer Network Australia. Over $60,000 was raised prior to event day which is an astounding effort!

Well done to Susan Michelson who won the 10km event and Kristy McCarthy who won the 5km event, along with all category winners and first timers. We hope you liked this year’s improvements including updated venue layout, the race kits and new fresh look event t-shirt from Sussans.

Thank you for supporting the event. All the best for your training and we hope to see you again in one of our future events.

Fuse Photography took some great shots of participants at different points along the course. Visit www.fusephotography.com and search by name or race number to purchase any action shots of the day!

Congratulations to everyone who participated on race day, what a fantastic effort.

After all your hard work, you deserve to take a week off and relax!

Just remember that running is most beneficial when undertaken regularly and, with the Christmas season fast approaching, one of the best ways to maintain the results you have achieved is to make sure that you continue training regularly and aim to develop a routine of running at least a few times every week.

Visit www.fernwoodfitness.com.au or contact you nearest Fernwood Women’s Health Club for advice on how to continue your training.
