Real Insurance Harbour 10k Run

Sydney’s new running era begins with a new-look 10km event that will liven up Sydney streets on July 27.

The Real Insurance Harbour 10 is a 10km and 5km race built by runners, for runners. It's more than a race. It’s a vibe. A connection. A defining moment in Sydney’s winter run culture.

Designed for the Run Club Generation

This rebranded 10km was crafted with the new wave of Sydney runners in mind - the ones hitting sunrise sessions, chasing PBs on Strava, or showing up to Saturday runs just to feel part of something real.

This is a race that gets it. A fast, flat course that flows through the heart of the harbour city. No fluff. No gimmicks. Just smart design and serious feels - not to mention the after party at the end!

Whether you’re lining up for your first ever 5km, gunning for a 10km PB, or rallying your crew for a mid-winter mission, this is your chance to be part of a movement that’s changing the rhythm of Sydney’s running scene.

Running for Those Who Can’t

This year, it is about more than chasing PBs; it’s about purpose. Proudly supported by Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF), the event gives every runner the chance to make their race matter.

Since 2022, the event has raised significant funds for cutting-edge cancer research right here in Australia. Whether you’re racing for someone you love, running in memory, or taking your first steps toward something bigger, this is your chance to run for those who can’t — and be part of something that truly changes lives. Every step counts. Every dollar matters. Every runner makes a difference.
