GALLIPOLI Barracks in Brisbane was opened up for a good cause today, raising funds for Legacy through the Australian Army’s newest health and fitness initiative – Run Army.
Minister for Defence Personnel and Minister for Veterans’ Affairs Darren Chester said over 800 Australian Army personnel, Defence workers and civilians gathered today to participate in the inaugural fun run for either the 5km or 10km course.
“As a passionate runner myself, I appreciate the mental and physical health benefits exercise provides and it is great to see our Army personnel partnering with ex-service community and raising funds for Legacy,” Mr Chester said.
