The Multiple Steps for Multiple Sclerosis Fun Run features a series of courses that cater to a variety of fitness levels, each starting from the iconic Napier Soundshell. Participants can choose a relatively flat 5km route along the scenic Rotary Pathway, ideal for families and casual walkers. Alternatively, the 5km Bluff Hill option includes a more challenging route with stairs, appealing to those seeking a more strenuous workout. For a more intense experience, the 10km “Gut Buster” takes runners across both Bluff and Hospital Hills, testing endurance with its demanding elevations.
This event also includes a team component in the “Gut Buster” race, where groups from schools, gyms, and businesses can compete, with the fastest three times from each team contributing to the overall score. This adds a layer of community involvement and friendly competition to the race.
Overall, the event not only provides a range of physical challenges but also fosters community spirit as it supports a vital local cause. The evening setting adds a unique, communal atmosphere to the experience, encouraging participation from all corners of the community.
