In Australia, only 11.4% of women feel safe to walk at night*. This Women's Health Week, we're inviting you to Own the Night. Join Whyalla Rec Centre for a community 5km walk / jog / run that stands for more than just fitness.
It's about reclaiming our streets, challenging the idea that women should feel unsafe outdoors after dark, and empowering women to move with confidence. Together, we're creating a visible show of strength, support and solidarity - because every woman deserves to feel free to walk, jog or run whenever she chooses.
Whether you're walking your first 5km or you're a regular runner, your presence is part of something bigger.
