Geek Run
Take a walk on the geek side
Sunday 4 May 2025
May the Fourth be with You!
May the 4th is one of the most internationally recognised holidays around the world. Not just a celebration of Star Wars, it celebrates Sci-Fi, and, perhaps more importantly, the inner geek in all of us. So, whether you’re of the Star Wars/Star Trek/Firefly debate or simply love all things geek, the Geek Run is for you!
The Geek Run offers a rare evening run.
Walkers accepted. The cut-off is midnight.
