From sunrise shakeouts to underground races and finish-line celebrations.

Sydney isn’t just a city, it’s a running playground. This August, we’re turning the streets, the shoreline, and the hidden corners of the city into a celebration of movement, community, and culture.

With exclusive events, disruptive experiences, and the launch of the new FuelCell Rebel V5 and SC Elite V5, we’re uniting every runner, from first-timers to experienced marathoners, into one unforgettable month.

Whether you run for fun, for friends, or for finish lines, August is yours if you run your way.

Everything You Need to Know

Curious about how to get involved, where to run, or how to grab the latest Unofficial gear? We’ve got you. Whether you’re lacing up for your first 5K, chasing a marathon PB, or just here for the post-run hangs, here’s everything you need to know about running with us this August.

August is our month-long celebration of Sydney running, powered by Unofficial Run Club x New Balance. From our regular community runs to special August activations and new merch drops, we’re uniting the city’s runners to make August the most exciting month of the year.

On August 10th we are taking over something fun and exciting. Keep your eyes peeled on our socials daily so you don’t miss out!

Not at all. Unofficial Run Club is for every runner. From first-timers to marathon chasers. Our weekly runs are free and social, designed to help you find your rhythm, meet like-minded runners, and enjoy the city in motion.

Our free weekly runs are open to everyone:

  • Wednesday Speed – 5:45am | Perfect for those chasing PBs and structured workouts. Check out our stories on Tuesday’s for a special invitation as it’s invite only.
  • Unofficial Fridays – 5:45am, Milsons Point | Scenic Harbour Bridge sunrise run with the whole crew.

Just show up or register online if you want to stay updated with any special sessions.

August is when Sydney’s running energy peaks for the marathon at the end of the month being a major for the very first time. Beyond our weekly runs, we’re hosting exclusive activations, post-run hangouts, and community experiences with New Balance to celebrate the city’s biggest running moments.

Expect:

  • Special event runs & community shakeouts
  • Carb-fuelled celebrations after big training blocks
  • Content drops highlighting the best of Sydney running culture

Yes. Our Unofficial Run Club shop drops fresh merch throughout August, including:

  • Limited-edition drops coming soon
  • Hoodies and post-run layers for winter mornings
  • Socks and accessories for the full Unoffcial look

Merch is available online, and some pieces will pop up exclusively at our August events – so run, don’t walk.

We will have content creators, videographers and photographers out on the course looking out for everyone who is wearing our merch to get featured.

Of course, we’d love that. Send us an email at hello@unofficialrunclub.com and let us know what you’re thinking. Make sure to include your Instagram handle and let’s go from there. This will be open to anyone from organic social content to high-quality visuals and edits. Let’s chat.

Make sure you register at the top of this page to receive an email with all the info you need. Other than that make sure you follow @unofficialrunclub on Instagram for live updates, event announcements, and content drops. Or better yet, join a run.
