The Nike Melbourne Marathon Festival, Australia’s premier Marathon event, returns weekend of Saturday 10 & Sunday 11 October 2026.
Starting on Batman Avenue (150m North of Rod Laver Arena), and finishing with a lap of honour around the MCG’s hallowed turf, the weekend promises to be a spectacular event for all involved!
FORGE (Australia) has a team of runners for this event, including two of our charity Directors – Jon Hyer and Sam Stuart.
We do still have space to welcome other runners to our team.
Would you like to run to support children with rare genetic conditions? We would love to hear from you if so.
