We’re excited to have Kal Glanznig back at the Beachside Dash this September! Kal is taking on the Dash to help us raise more money for medical research, and you can be part of his journey too.

You can support Kal and his fundraising here:
https://beachsidedashfamilyfunrun.gofundraise.com.au/page/Kal-22442859

Kal’s work as a filmmaker is all about telling stories that make people stop, think and hopefully take action. His latest film, The Plastic Country, explores the impact of plastic on our oceans and the urgent need to do something about it.

It’s a message that connects beautifully with his work as our Recycle 4 Research Ambassador. R4R is all about turning a simple action - returning your 10c containers - into something bigger: funding vital medical research while keeping containers out of landfill.

So far, R4R has raised more than $55,000 for medical research and diverted over half a million containers from landfill.

And now Kal is taking action once again, swapping the camera for his running shoes and joining us at the Beachside Dash to help raise even more for medical research.

If you’d like to support Kal, every donation helps us turn action into impact.

Volunteer for the 2026 Beachside Dash!

We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help make this year's Beachside Dash a fantastic day for our participants and community. With a variety of roles available, there's something for everyone, and we guarantee a fun and rewarding day out.

Every volunteer will receive a Volunteer Appreciation Pack including snacks, water, vouchers and a hat.

With the addition of our first certified Half Marathon, alongside the 10km, 5km, 2km and Corporate Cup events, we'll need more than 30 volunteers to help bring the day to life.

You'll also have the opportunity to witness the first certified Half Marathon connecting St George to The Shire, with world champions and Olympians expected to compete.
