Flying Brick Bellarine Sunset Run

The Flying Brick Bellarine Sunset Run is an annual coastal trail event on the Bellarine Peninsula, held on the second Saturday of February between Portarlington and St Leonards.

Races on the program include a half marathon, a 10.5 km course, and a 4 km community run. The event notes that walkers are welcome in the longer distances with no cutoffs, and that medals are provided for all finishers.
