Triathlon club meets Peace Run

The St Hubert Island Triathlon Club met runners from the Peace Run as they passed through the Peninsula on Sunday, June 4.

The runners were young people from all over the world who were running from Brisbane to Adelaide to promote international peace.

The Sri Chinmoy Oneness-Home Peace Run is a global relay that seeks to promote international friendship and understanding.

Since its inception in 1987, the Run has traversed over 100 nations and touched the lives of millions of people.

Formerly known as the World Harmony Run, the Peace Run does not seek to raise money or highlight any political cause, but simply strives to create goodwill among peoples of all nations.

The runners were on their way to the Palm Beach Ferry and then on to Sydney on their way down the coast.
