Location: Starting and ending at the Darwin Convention Centre. The route will take you along the waterfront and esplanade, via the aptly named ‘Doctors Gully Carpark’, and back.
Lace up your running shoes and join us for an energising start to the day with our Wellbeing Morning Run that sets the tone for an inspiring conference experience. This family-friendly, guided 5km fun run will kick off from the iconic Darwin Waterfront, taking you on a scenic route, yet to be confirmed. After the run, you can enjoy a well-deserved post-run dip at the nearby man-made beach, if you fancy it.
With numerous coffee shops lining the Waterfront, attendees can indulge in a delicious breakfast and fuel up for the day ahead.
Amid the awe-inspiring landscapes of Australia and Canada, rural emergency medicine thrives on creativity and unwavering dedication. After making a solemn promise to a patient on her deathbed, Dr. Fleet embarked on a journey of relentless advocacy and research to transform despair into hope. Quebec's circus industry emerged as an unexpected yet powerful ally, proving that when imagination meets commitment, miracles happen. For the people and by the people, the pioneering rural living lab hospital project stands as a testament to the imaginative possibilities that arise when passion unites with purpose. Australians and Canadians, as academic leaders in rural emergency medicine, let's fulfill this promise together and inspire the world.
