Calling all athletes, wannabe athletes and fun runners to the Coral Coast Fire Magic Mile.
This year’s event is once again hosted by the Whitsunday Running Club adding another element of fun to an already exciting day.
The event encourages anyone to participate, and the main aim of the day is to have fun!
The mile run, originating in England as a gambling distance, has persisted despite track and field's shift to metric measurements in the 1900s. It gained prominence with the quest for the four-minute mile in the 1950s and remains the only imperial distance for which the IAAF keeps an official world record. The current world record holders are Morocco's Hicham El Guerrouj and Russia's Svetlana Masterkova.
Come get stuck into some running and history with the Magic Mile Run!
What: Magic Mile Race
When: Saturday, 3 August from 4-5pm

On your marks!
