About RunAround

RunAround is a Townsville-based running website that aims to promote running in our community, inspire others to get outdoors, and stay connected with like-minded people. The Townsville Virtual Running Series is the brainchild of Sidney Willis from Hungry Runner Coaching. This virtual running series allows participants the flexibility that conventional races can't offer.

Our goal is to give Townsville runners the opportunity to regularly test themselves on different running courses. Races are either Road or Trail. Some are flat, others hilly. We hope this challenges runners on terrains they are more or less adapted to.

How to enter

Connect your Strava account, add an email for notifications, and run a published course. We match your GPS trace to the route. During a race window your best time counts for that race. The overall leaderboard stays open so you can come back later and try to beat the record.
