The First Nations Strategy

Pont3 - the organisation that delivers the TCS Sydney Marathon presented by ASICS - acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the lands in which we operate, live and deliver our event, the Dharawal language group of the wider Sydney Basin.

Our event transverses Cammeraygal, Wangal, Gadigal, and Bidjigal clan areas – in and around the foreshores of the Sydney Harbour – places traditionally used for hunting, fishing, and congregation.

We acknowledge the privilege we have in congregating in these lands with hundreds of thousands of people – those running, those pushing, those volunteering, and those spectating – and are dedicated to sharing experiences of culture across our network.

Pont3 also acknowledges the wider Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people of Australia, paying respects to Elders both past and present and their continuous connection to these lands.
