Explore Mosman’s Best Running Groups for Every Pace
From sunrise sessions by the beach to family-friendly 5 km runs, Mosman’s run clubs and running groups bring together locals of all ages and abilities. Here are some of the best ways to get moving.

With its sparkling harbour views, leafy streets, and beachside pathways, Mosman is one of Sydney’s most scenic spots to lace up your runners. But it’s not just about the views - it’s also about the people. Mosman has a strong community-led running culture, offering everything from relaxed social jogs to structured athletic training. Whether you’re new to running, training for an event, or just keen to meet neighbours who love to stay active, there’s a group here for you.
Mosman parkrun – Spit West Reserve
One of the most popular entry points into community running, Mosman parkrun is a free weekly 5 km event held every Saturday at 7:00 AM at Spit West Reserve. The course is timed (so you can track your progress) but the vibe is refreshingly low-pressure, with runners, walkers, families, and even prams welcome. It’s the perfect way to kick off your weekend with some movement, fresh air, and friendly faces. You’ll need to register online before your first run, but after that, it’s free every week.
Every Saturday, 7:00 AM
Free, registration required
Pace Athletic Mosman Run Club
If you’re after a sociable mid-week boost, the Pace Athletic Run Club has you covered. Meeting every Friday morning at 6:30 AM from their store on Military Road, the group covers a relaxed 5–9 km loop through Mosman’s stunning harbourfront. The runs are fun, inclusive, and designed for all abilities, making them a great option for those who want to explore local routes with a supportive crew. Plus, being store-hosted, it’s a handy spot to connect with like-minded runners and maybe pick up some new gear along the way.
Fridays at 6:30 AM
Free to join
Balmoral Run Club
For early birds, Balmoral Run Club delivers. Meeting every Wednesday at 5:00 AM outside Bathers Pavilion, this grassroots group takes on a short 2 km loop — perfect for a quick, consistent start to the day. The atmosphere is friendly and informal, and many runners cool off with a swim at Balmoral Beach or grab a coffee afterwards. It’s the ideal mix of fitness and socialising, set against one of Sydney’s most beautiful backdrops.
Every Wednesday, 5:00 AM
