Fitzy's 5 is a fun run and walk on 3 August 2025 to honour the memory of David Fitzsimons and raise funds to support the work of the Leukemia Foundation.

The event is part of Athletic South Australia's annual Winter Season.

David "Fitzy" Fitzsimons was one of Australia's leading distance runners in the 1970s. Forever a picture of fitness, sadly, Fitzy was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. As tenacious and determined as Fitzy was, even he couldn't beat this opponent and tragically, he passed away on 7 September 2008 at the age of 58. The first run in his honour was held on 1 August 2010.
