Emer Casey Fun Run

Emer Casey Fun Run

The Emer Casey Foundation was created after the tragic death of its name sake, 28 year old Emer Casey.

The mission of the Emer Casey Foundation is to raise money to fund research into this form of cancer.

Funds raised in Ireland are donated to the DISCOVARY consortium, and funds raised in Australia are donated to the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre - Australia’s only public hospital solely dedicated to cancer, and a national and international leader in laboratory, clinical and translational research.

Each year, the Emer Casey Foundation organises fun runs in Australia, Ireland, New York, and London as its primary vehicle to raise donations.

Event Details:

  • When: 27 May 2012
  • Where: Monash University, Clayton Campus
  • Distances: 5km & 10km
  • Atmosphere :The event is distinguished from others by its friendly atmosphere, and a distinctively Irish feel. For example, a traditional Irish band will be jigging with the joggers at the half way point.
Who will participate? We’re aiming for 500 competitors, plus their family and supporting friends. There will be a range of people including:
  • members of the Irish community
  • international students
  • fitness enthusiasts
  • supporting families and children
