WHO WE ARE
Byron Bay Runners was founded in 2011. We have over 200 members, ranging from Juniors (ages 8-12yrs), Seniors (12-18yrs), Open (18-30yrs), Masters (30+yrs) and Veteran (50+yrs) age groups. We have an even split of females and males across all training groups, and range from recreational runners running for fitness, social and wellbeing, to state- and national level medallists. Our members enjoy taking part in track, road, trail and cross country.
