Can’t make it to event day in-person? Lace up and join us virtually to make a difference!

The virtual event allows participants to choose their course and set their own pace. Whether you do a 4km morning run along the beach, or 4 x 1km walks after your workday, the Chevron City to Surf for genU Virtual Event is the perfect opportunity for you to get active and support Aussies living with disability!

Please register by 13 August to receive your event shirt before Virtual Event Week begins.
Registering after this date? No stress – your shirt will be sent after the event. All medals are posted once you’ve completed your distance and submitted your results.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Once registered, you complete your chosen distance; 4km or 12km within Monday, 24 August – Sunday, 6 September 2026. You can complete the course either in one go, or you can break it up into blocks over several days within the timeframe.

Use a smartwatch, phone app or treadmill to track your kilometres and time. We will need you to screenshot or take a photo of your device listing your start time, finish time, the date and kilometres travelled. (If you are breaking your distance up into blocks, please ensure you record each time you walk, run or roll).

Upload your screenshot or photo to your Race Roster dashboard for us to verify your time and distance.

Celebrate! You did it, you completed your course. Once we’ve verified your results, we will send out your special Chevron City to Surf for genU finishers medal!
