TCS Sydney Marathon presented by ASICS

Run for charity.
Secure your Place.

The TCS Sydney Marathon presented by ASICS is more than Australia’s greatest marathon. It’s a powerful force for social change. Since the event began, our incredible community of runners has raised over $52 million for important causes, including a record $15.2 million in 2026 alone, the largest amount ever raised in a single day of running in Australia. 

 

Whether you want to support ground-breaking medical research, foster social inclusion, or give back to your local community, you can turn your efforts into real-world impact. Choose your charity, start fundraising with Grassrootz and secure your place in 2027.
