Weight of War Run 2026 – Canberra
From Eventbrite · Last checked 27 Oct. That's our last look, not a live ticket check.
Event details may change. Confirm times, availability and prices with the organiser before attending.
The lowdown
Strip down, strap in and suffer alongside your mates.
The Weight of War Run is 21km in a 10kg weighted vest and a pair of budgy smugglers. The vest stands for the invisible weight veterans carry. The smugglers stand for the guts it takes to ask for help.
Pick your distance: 21km, 10km, 5km, a 1km walk, or set your own. The vest is optional. No timing, no placings, no prizes, just mates carrying the load together.
100% FREE to enter, for everyone, veteran or not.
