EPC Coast Run
The annual Earle Page College Coast Run fundraiser is its 41st consecutive year.
Since 1980 this event has been a huge part of our culture, so we’re not going to let a pandemic stand in the way… the Coast Run will go ahead in 2020, albeit with a few changes!
We have decided to run a new event, EPC’s Coast Run Goes Global. Whether it’s our on-campus run on the 18th September or the online virtual run 14th – 20th September, anyone, wherever you are, can participate, safely, and still contribute to this great cause!
HOW IT WORKS
- Register to the EPC Goes Global Run
- Check your email for the link to join the EPC group (this is how they will track your steps)!
- Over the week of Monday the 13th, until Sunday the 20th of September, we challenge you to run as far as you can!
- Get your shoes on and move
- It’s that simple!
Coast Run Goes Global is an awesome opportunity for our students, staff, alumni, community, and EPC faithful from around the world to become involved with the 2020 Coast Run, and contribute to the College’s fantastic legacy

Since its commencement over 40 years ago, the Earle Page College Coast Run has raised over half a million dollars for the Children’s Medical Research Institute and has become a significant part of the culture and the community at EPC, and within the University community.

TIME: 10am
MEETING PLACE: Earle Page College, reception

PLEASE NOTE: Unfortunately, due to COVID spectators aren’t encouraged for this event
“It brings about a great sense of achievement within our college and the wider community and we all value upholding a longstanding tradition of our college that helps us give back” – Kathie Hunt
2km course
5km course
In previous years most Coast Runners complete anywhere from 20km to 80km over 2 days. Over the last 40 years of the Coast Run, we have covered some 200km down to Coffs Jetty, a cumulative total of 8,000km. Lets see how far we can get together.
Can’t join the run, support us another way!
