Run the MelBurn21

Saturday Night: March 4, 2023

The 2023 MelBurn21 has been run. Keep your belt on for 2024

An amalgamation of JSR's best urban routes, the race takes us through the CBD’s most scenic and pumping spots as the sun sets on a bustling Saturday night. It'll be at 6:30pm, Saturday 4th March meeting at our fave spot at Lulie Tavern, 225 Johnston St, Abbotsford at 6.15pm.

As runners, we will reclaim the urban streets together. But this is also an opportunity for JSR's quickest feet to stake their claim as the long-distance champion of Abbotsford.  

 
 

Registration + Charity

We’ve put a small $21 entry fee on the run. $21 for 21km. Entry fees will go to the Abbotsford Riverbankers, a super local non-profit you’ve probably never heard of. As we run through the hood and use the Birrarung’s (Yarra) trails, we feel a responsibility to look after the health of the river and the flora and fauna it gives life to. The Riverbankers are a bunch of volunteers who care for the river by weeding, planting and doing citizen science just down the road from our home at Lulie’s. Hat’s off to the quiet legends working to ensure we get to marvel at the nature we are lucky enough to have here in the inner north.
