fun run.<\/p>\n<p>Organised annually by the Ocean Grove SLSC as one of its major events and its largest fundraiser of the year, Saturday&#8217;s event saw runners take on a 10km course along the beach between the Point Lonsdale lighthouse and the main beach at Ocean Grove.<\/p>\n<p>Due to high temperatures forecast for Saturday afternoon, all races started 30 minutes earlier than usual.<\/p>\n<p>Ocean Grove SLSC touts the event as &#8220;arguably the oldest fun run in Australia&#8221; with about 1,000 people taking part every year, and the 2025 edition featured big fields in all four categories: the 10km Classic Run, the 10km Walk, the 5km Beach Run and the 1.4km Ripper Nipper.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rl-gallery-container rl-loading\" id=\"rl-gallery-container-1\"
