About Us

River City Runners was established in 1977. For over 40 years its members are a group of like minded people who have been brought together to run for fun and fitness on the trails and paths around Toohey Forest on Brisbane's Southside. At River City Runners every runner is a friend, as a club River City Runners promote and foster a love of running, no matter the ability, in a social and friendly environment. Our youngest members are in their teens and our oldest members in their 70's. Our members participate in a wide range of events, including but not limited, to Cross Country, Mass Road Running Events, Trail Running and Ultra Running events. We often have a number of members preparing for and participating in events together but some of us just love to get out and run, particularly on a Saturday morning in the Toohey Forest, something our members have been doing since it's inception.
