The Bibra Lake Runningworks Festival celebrates its 10th anniversary on Sunday 5 July 2026, at Bibra Lake Reserve in Perth's southern suburbs, Western Australia. The event takes runners around the scenic Bibra Lake wetlands on a fast, predominantly flat, internationally IAAF and AIMS certified course of shared pathways circling the lake, with water views and abundant birdlife throughout the route. Four distances are on offer, all built on a 6km lap course that lets family and friends cheer runners on multiple times: the Marathon, starting at 8:00am; the Half Marathon, starting at 8:05am; and the 12km and 6km, both starting at 9:00am. A strict 2:00pm cut-off applies to all events. Live lap timing is displayed on the event screen so spectators can follow runners' progress throughout the race. Prizes and medals are awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in every event. The reserve, accessible via Stock Road or North Lake Road off Progress Drive, offers free parking, toilet facilities, change areas and bag storage. Early July in Perth brings mild winter conditions, with temperatures typically ranging from 8-18°C.
