Connor's Run on 14 September 2025 is held annually in September to honour the memory of Robert Connor Dawes, and is the world's largest event for paediatric brain cancer.

The full course spans 18.8km from Hampton Beach to Alexandra Gardens – the same track Connor once ran in preparation for a rowing season and coincidentally, the length of his life. The 9.6km is from Catani Gardens St Kilda to Alexandra Gardens, representing Connor’s birthday, 9 June.

The new 3km Little Bird Loop takes place from the finish line, across the Yarra and back to the finish.

As well as the live event, there will also be a virtual "Your Way, Any Day" for the whole month of September (see the event website for details).
