Tamara Private Hospital Tamworth Running Festival

Started by 3 locals, it is the 3rd oldest Fun Run in NSW and a much loved contribution to the lifestyle of North West NSW. The original course in 1974 included the competitors starting from outside the Tamworth Town Hall, running down Tamworth’s main street (Peel St), then turning into a hilly section in East Tamworth and returning to No 1 Oval. Back then it involved crossing the New England Highway three times with Police obligingly holding up the traffic.

Oh for those simple days….. Naturally the course has changed over the years.
