The 321-GO Kids Race – which has been run by the Burnie Athletic Club since 2021 after starting life as a Burnie City Council event – is a lively and inclusive running event designed to encourage young athletes to enjoy sport, stay active and experience the excitement of a real race day. Children of varying ages take part in distance categories suited to their age and ability, with the focus firmly on fun, confidence and participation rather than competition alone. Families gather around the course to cheer on the next wave of runners, creating a supportive and uplifting atmosphere that celebrates every effort and achievement. From eager first-timers to little athletes already building a love for running, the event provides a safe and inspiring space for kids to challenge themselves, experience the joy of crossing a finish line and take part in a memorable community occasion. The 321-GO Kids Race is all about healthy habits, big smiles and building confidence through movement.
