Finishers Medals
Race Merch
Runners can choose between a race t-shirt or singlet, designed by Griffith University Bachelor of Design student, Lewis Walker (he/him).
Inspired by Toohey Forest's unique topography and its diverse wildlife, this design features the "fingerprint" of Toohey Forest - using actual topographic lines of the forest, overlaid with outlines of a kookaburra, koala, and bearded dragon - iconic species that reflect the forest's rich biodiversity. The background of the design, a green-to-blue gradient, evokes the transition from forest canopy to open sky.
CUP-LESS EVENT
Toohey Trail Run is making a sustainable change in 2025 and is moving to a CUP-LESS EVENT.
In an effort to minimise our waste impact and align with existing trail runs there will be NO CUPS AT THIS EVENT (on course or in the precinct).
What does this mean for you?
- You will need to carry a bottle, collapsible cup or hydration pack.
- There will still be water stations available on course for you to refill at.
- We suggest carrying a min of 500ml capacity.
