Both the seven-kilometre run and the two-kilometre walk were well attended, as generations stood shoulder to shoulder to celebrate and remember those touched by breast and ovarian cancer and to raise life-saving funds for research.

Every year thousands of Australians come together on Mother’s Day at ‘Classic’ events at various locations across the country.

Since 1998 just over $46 million has been donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation and since 2024, an additional $1.2 million has been donated to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation.
