OUR STORY

Born out of the idea of wanting to see more collaboration between run clubs, and not have to wait to the next startline of a race to see (and beat) eachother, [mo]re than a run is that opportunity for run clubs to come together in collaboration, not competition.

2021

Originally the idea was to launch [mo]re than a run to a tight group of 15 run clubs around sydney, very quickly however it became obvious that plenty of run clubs all over the country wanted to be involved. The fundrasising target we scribbled down on a piece of paper was $50,000, little did we now tha the community would show up in a much bigger way....
