Still Chance to Join Team Flinders for City to Bay Fun Run In September!


Love walking? Love running? Love the city? Love the Bay? If you answer yes to all of these questions, then join Team Flinders in September for the City to Bay. Discounted registration, free singlet, training, support and breakfast included.


For the last 2 years, I have done the City to Bay fun run. Admittedly I’ve walked it (I’m more of a Frodo than a de Castella) but I do the full distance (hold your applause).

I’ve seen plenty of Flinders people in the event, but Flinders hasn’t had a formal presence at the fun run……….until this year!

Thanks to the fine folks at Flinders Sports and Fitness, there will be a Team Flinders at the 2024 City to Bay. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

For those participating or thinking of participating, joining Team Flinders is a good deal.

Team Flinders Includes:

•  $20 discount off rego fee
•  Free running singlet
•  8-week training program
•  Dietitian support
•  Physio support
•  Post run breakfast

There are still places available in Team Flinders, so get in early. They are hoping to have all registrations by the 20th July, so that people can start the 8-week training program (see details below picture).

To register, click the link that relates to the involvement you’d like to have. If you don’t already have a Flinders Sports and Fitness account, you will need to create one as part of the process. If you register via one of these links, there will be no need to register direct with the City-Bay website.

If you have already registered for the City to Bay but would like to join the Flinders team, Amy Moyce from Flinders Sports and Fitness is looking into a way to get you swapped into the team, so hit her up for the process.

If you visit the QR code in the picture below, to bring up the various registration links (as above) you will need to change the dates to September. Then you can select your race to receive the $20 discount and order the singlet size etc. Regardless of how and what you sign up for, no one needs to register direct with the City-Bay website. Flinders fitness will do that on their behalf as a bulk entry later.
