About 25,000 enthusiasts took part in Brisbane’s International Women’s Day Fun Run on Sunday. Now in its 35th year, the event marked a record-breaking milestone, raising over AUD$2 million (HKD$11 million) for breast cancer services and research.
The five-kilometre course ran from South Bank Vulture Street to the City Botanic Garden between 6:15am and 7:50am, with participants wearing event-issued pink shirts.
According to the Breast Cancer Trials, around 20,440 Australians are expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. Among women aged 40 to 49, the incidence rate has climbed from 76.6 to 81.1 per 100,000 between 2000 and 2025.
