The 42nd edition of the Berts Bricks Great Brick Run returns on January 24, inviting runners of all ages and fitness levels to gather at the Snowflake Building to compete in this iconic race. What makes this race different is the second stretch of the 21.1km, where runners are given the option to complete the distance while carrying a brick.

The first 100 athletes to cross the finish line with their brick will receive a six-pack of beer. Only one brick per athlete will be permitted. The event offers standard distances of 21.1km, 10km, and 4.9km.
