Run Melbourne
Western Health Foundation runners go the distance for Western Health
What a day! On Sunday 19 July 2026, the Western Health Foundation community came together at Run Melbourne to run, walk and cheer for Western Health.
As a Gold Charity Partner, we were proud to have 83 participants take part across the 5km, 10km and half marathon events, raising an incredible $10,500 for Western Health.
Every kilometer was a show of support for our patients, families and healthcare teams across Melbourne’s west. From first-time runners to experienced distance runners, our team brought plenty of energy and enthusiasm to the course – and our Foundation marquee was a great place to celebrate together before and after the event.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who registered, fundraised, donated, volunteered, cheered from the sidelines or helped make the day possible. Your support helps the Western Health Foundation fund initiatives that make a real difference to patients, families and staff across Western Health.
A special thank you to our supporters
We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to Alivia, Alfa, Moo Goo and Lennox Scrubs for generously supporting our Run Melbourne team and contributing products for our participant finisher packs. Their generosity helped us create a special way to recognise and celebrate everyone who took part.
