About Eightmile

Our race events are about deepening your joy of running. Each race is designed to lead you to new places, into nature we often forget lies on our doorstep. Our races have something for everyone whether you are a beginner or chasing a personal best .
Our events bring people together to share the feeling only running can give: freedom, achievement, and connection.

Eightmile is organised by Kris, whose lifelong passion for running inspired the creation of something new: simple, affordable, and welcoming events that balance professionalism with grassroots spirit.

Each Eightmile route is held once per season, with an annual Signature Edition (including longer distances up to ultra). Every event is fully marked, timed, and supported — helping you test yourself, track progress, and share the experience with others.

With experience from grassroots charity runs to Alpine skyraces and 100-mile ultras like UTMB, Kris knows what it takes to design events that inspire and bring people together.

"Running has given me so much. My goal is to help you get the best from the sport you love. After all, you never regret going for a run."
