WelcomeThe Kirribilli Runners (KRs) is a social running group which is free and open to everyone. The KRs meet 6.30pm every Thursday night and 9am Sunday morning at the base of the Harbour Bridge stairs, Milsons Point. The Thursday night run is about 6 km's and soaks up the delightful sights of the world's best harbour; we unwind at the Kirribilli Hotel. And for those of you who are new, we have locker space near the start of the run. You can securely leave your bags, tracksuits and related clobber for the duration of the run there. Bring your friends along; inform them of this website; if persuasion is required, point out how glamorous, enjoyable and social our running club is. If they say they run by themselves — or worse, on a treadmill in a gym — you can point out how disheartening solo running is. As the French philosopher Jean Baudrillard observed: ‘The only comparable distress is that of a man eating alone in the heart of the city.’ (America, 1986). Indeed. The Sunday run is less structured giving the opportunity to explore different routes around the city, lower north shore and harbour foreshore. The runs vary in length but are usually followed by a nice wind down at the Lounge Cafe, Milsons Point. For further details please email Dave. The CourseKirribilli Runners’ regular Thursday night route: start top of Harbour Bridge stairs, Milsons Point; over the Bridge (heading south); over the Cahill Express Way; down Macquarie St; around the Opera House (anti-clockwise); along past the ‘Toaster’ buildings; up the lift back up to Cahill; along Cahill Express (heading west); back over the Bridge; finish at top of stairs, Milsons Point. Runners participate at their own risk |
