The Melbourne Midday Milers is a sports club in Melbourne that offers an informal but structured lunchtime training programme for city workers. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced runner, you are welcome to join this club for a variety of casual, easy runs on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, or more intense speed, fartlek, and hill sessions on Tuesday and Thursday.
Conveniently located at the Tan Track, just a five-minute jog from the Flinders St/Swanston St intersection, The Melbourne Midday Milers provide a great opportunity for city workers to fit in some exercise during their lunch break. The group meets at 12:30pm each weekday, making it easy to incorporate training into a busy work schedule.
To ensure that all members can participate and benefit from the sessions, the Tuesday, and Thursday sessions are divided into dedicated A and B groups, catering to different levels of fitness and running abilities. This allows individuals to train at their own pace and progressively improve their performance.
The famous Tan Track is known for its picturesque scenery, providing a beautiful backdrop for the runs. Most runs start from the “Pillars of Wisdom,” located on the Tan Track just south of the Swan St Bridge. Some runs, as noted in the training programme, start at AOP, just across the river.
The Melbourne Midday Milers also offer merchandise for members to proudly display their affiliation with the club. Additionally, they have quick links available on their social media pages and club directories to provide easy access to information about the club and its activities.
