Our programs are transformational

Our programs do more than build fitness; they build confidence, friendships, and a love for movement.



Professional, accredited run leaders

Our Run Leaders are all accredited by Athletics Australia and affiliated with NSW Athletics, but it’s their passion for running and compassionate nature that is winning runners over.



Running with purpose

We raise awareness and funds for our amazing Charity Partners, the National Breast Cancer Foundation / Mothers Day Classic.

Running programs for every level

Have you ever wanted to learn to run? Or did you decide to finally sign up to that half marathon? We help women of all fitness levels go from ‘I can’t do this’ to ‘I DID IT!’ through structured programs that support your journey—step by step.

Get Running

“I’m a running newbie or a novice or I’m coming back to running after a pause”

The GET RUNNING will help you start your running journey. We will work together and get you running for 30 minutes continuously at a chatty pace.

Get running

Stay Running

“I want to take my running to the next level or I want to learn new skills”

If you want to refine your technique and take your running up a notch, then STAY RUNNING is for you! We’ll help you build up to a 7km non-stop run at your pace.

Stay running

Keep Running

“I’ve got the running bug or I want to find my tribe”

Consistency is queen when it comes to running! Now that you’re able to take on a long run or have conquered your latest event – it’s time to keep the endorphins going.

Keep running

Event training

“I want to push myself and tackle an event”

Join us for our Half Marathon, City2Surf, Marathon and Trail/Explorer series, and we’ll take on the challenge together. Our experienced and enthusiastic coaches help you through our inclusive event training programs. We will get you to the start line uninjured and ready to take on the distance.

As official partners of the National Breast Cancer Foundation for the Sydney Marathon, we have opened up our event training to everyone on the run – male and female marathoners.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve written a review previously but after my best year of running yet, I want to write another one.

The marathon training led by Lisa Sherman was a highlight of 2024. 16 weeks working together as a group to prepare for the Sydney Marathon was a life changing experience.

After conquering the marathon I noticed myself facing life’s challenges with a changed mindset - I have a quiet confidence inside of me that is new. I feel more capable.

Aside from the marathon, Lisa Sherman also led me through my first trail event and my fastest parkrun. These were goals I had set. And it is very satisfying to sit back now having achieved all of it.

With Lisa as my coach we are now working on a fresh individualised training programme focussed on my next goal.

I love working within the structure of a programme and it is a treat to chat with Lisa each week to review every run.

I cannot recommend Boobs on the Run highly enough for anyone tempted to try. There are options for everyone.

I’m so grateful to Mel for this incredibly supportive community that she created.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is by far the greatest activity I have done for my own wellbeing, mainly for my mental health.

Ngaire is a fantastic coach, with the adequate amount of spicy 🌶️ she gently guided me from a starting point of zero ( I have never done any running in the past for that matter any physical activity) to end up being hooked into running and able to run 7km in a quite entertaining way.

Cannot recommend Boobs on the run enough and it’s fantastic crew.

❤️❤️❤️I am forever grateful.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did the BOTR Marathon training program in 2024 and it is fantastic! I can’t recommend it enough. I was very nervous when I first signed up. I wasn’t sure if I could run a marathon. I was worried I might not be able to keep up with everyone and I didn’t know if I could handle hilly runs but I could keep up and I could handle hilly runs because the program caters to all paces and builds your fitness and endurance. The BOTR marathon training made me feel confident going into the Sydney Marathon. All the BOTR run leaders involved in the marathon training program were great. Mel, Tanya and of course Lisa. Lisa is an amazing run leader. Lisa made the whole training process so enjoyable. She covered every aspect from the physical to the mental and she made me feel supported. Every week I looked forward to the long runs with the group. Excited to explore a different part of Sydney with a diverse group of woman that were all so friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend the marathon training program to anyone that loves running and is looking for a challenge. If I can do it. You can too. Thank you BOTR!!!

I never imagined myself doing a half marathon but the amazing support I received from Tanya, Mel and all of the Boobs on the Run team made it not only possible but heaps of fun. The team is truly extraordinary, led by smart women with big hearts. I learned so much about the science of running, got lots of nutrition tips and amazing support with mindset as well. We Can Do Hard Things!!! Thanks so much to the team at Boobs on the Run 💕🤩

A fantastic community

I can now run 30mins without stopping…I am thrilled. If you have been thinking about starting but you are nervous, don’t be. I can not say enough good things, I am so glad I am now a part of this wonderful community. 💕🏃🏼‍♀️🙌
