TPT’S Backyard Marathon for Lifeline

Run your way. Support a great cause.

Coach Mac is taking on the London Marathon on 26 April 2026, and the TPT community has been running alongside her every step of the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Absolutely! Walkers are welcome. Please keep in mind the event wraps up at 2pm (6 hours from start time), so factor that into how far you want to go. A 2.5km loop takes most walkers around 30 minutes, so there's still plenty of time to rack up some solid distance.

  • Register your team in person on the day. Each person buys their own $10 ticket to entry and just let us know your team at the start.

  • The event will go ahead rain, hail or shine.

    April in Launceston can be anything, so come suitably prepared! Wear layers you can peel off, a hat, and sunscreen regardless of the forecast. Most importantly, wear proper running shoes. It can get slippery when wet, and we want everyone healthy and happy and finishing on their feet.

  • Directly to Lifeline Australia. TPT doesn't keep a cent.
