 Suellen Fitzgerald, Executive Director of Western Sydney Parklands Trust, said she was proud to be a part of the event, which showcased the Parklands and surrounds and gave participants a sneak preview of the Sydney Zoo site, which will be opening later in 2019. 

RunWest was hosted by Athletics Australia and Athletics NSW, in partnership with West HQ and NSW Government. Funds were raised for CanToo, Better Foundation, Neuroblastoma Australia, Ronald McDonald House, The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, the John Maclean Foundation and PCYC NSW.
