Cahoots On the Run

Join us at the Joondalup Running Festival for another year.

Get your joggers ready ‘cos Cahoots are back at the Joondalup Running Festival for another year in a row!

Coming Sunday, May 26 join us in tackling a half marathon, 10km run or 5km run.

While *technically* the Cahoots team won’t be running in the event, we will be there to volunteer our support the WA Marathon Club and cheer on everyone involved.

From seasoned marathoners to casual joggers, this event offers something for everyone, combining the thrill of competition with the beauty of the surroundings.

For many participants, the Joondalup Running Festival represents more than just a race—it’s a personal challenge to overcome obstacles and achieve new milestones.

Whether it’s completing a half marathon for the first time or setting a new personal best, each runner has their own goals and aspirations driving them forward.

Along the way, they draw strength from the support of their fellow runners and the unwavering encouragement of spectators lining the route.

As the official charity partner for the Joondalup Running Festival, we’re so excited to lend a helping hand, cheer on runners and get involved in all the days festivities, promoting both regular exercise and supporting WA kids living with disability.

Before you rush to sign up. Here are all the details for the day:

The AIMS certified event will be at Neil Hawkins Park in Joondalup at 7am on Sunday 26 May 2024.

You have a choice of three different lengths, and all participants in the 21.1km, 10km & 5km will receive a finisher medal!

Online registrations close on Thursday 23 May 2024 at 12 PM, unless sold out prior.

So, whether you’re a seasoned marathoner or a casual jogger looking for your next challenge, mark your calendars for this May’s Joondalup Running Festival.

Join us as we lace up our shoes, hit the trail, and embark on a journey of endurance, camaraderie, and inspiration.

Help us, help others

No matter how small, your contribution goes towards helping Cahoots lower the costs for families using our services. Whilst we are NDIS funded, there is often a shortfall between the funding and the cost of our activities, so your donations mean families can still send their loved ones to our camps and programs.

For many, Cahoots is a life changing experience for both the participants who grow, learn and enjoy themselves, but it also provides respite to parents and families from the demands of full time care. Anything you can spare is greatly appreciated.
