All participants need to enter online and pay the registration fee, including little ones in the pram. Please use the categories dedicated for prams to receive a discounted entry for your little one.
If a parent/guardian is entered in either the 5km or 10km event and wishes to participate in the 800m with their child, they do not need to pay an additional entry fee. Simply leave your 5km or 10km bib on so our event team know who you are.
Please note there will be the following road closures on Sunday 27 October 2024 for the Strait Link Burnie 10 to be staged safely.
Lost property can be handed in or claimed at the registration desk.
You can store your bags at the Baptist Church, near the Council offices. Rip off the security bag tag on the bottom of your bib and attach it to your bag. The Baptist Church is located off the carpark behind the Council Building via Wilson St or via Mount St walkway rear to the rear of the Church. The address is 57-59 Mount St.
The Strait Link Burnie 10 is fortunate to have a very loyal and enthusiastic group of volunteers who freely give their time to ensure you get the best possible experience on race day. If you would like to help too, please contact one of the following volunteering groups. We are deeply indebted to Burnie Athletic Club, St John Ambulance, Rotary Club of Burnie, Burnie Surf Life Saving, Rotary Club of Somerset, Burnie Emu Bay Lions Club, Burnie SES, Burnie Army Cadet Corp and Burnie Basketball Club. Please be kind and help them enjoy their day too.

Stay around on WIlson street at the finish for free live music also!
