This past long weekend, Habitat Planning was proud to support the Pub To Pelican run in the beautiful Upper Murray as gold sponsor of the marathon event, the Habitat Planning Marathon.
Beginning at the Bethanga Hotel and finishing at Pelican Park on the shores of Lake Hume in Tallangatta, the event brought together runners of all abilities and showed them some of the most stunning and wide-open landscapes of the region.
Established following the 2019–20 bushfires, Pub to Pelican was created to support Upper Murray communities affected by the devastation of the Black Summer fires. It stands as a powerful reminder of the resilience of regional communities and what can be achieved when people come together.
This year, more than 700 participants took part across the marathon, half marathon, 10km and 3km events, making it the biggest event to date.
We were pleased to support an initiative that gives back to a region which supports us and many of our team know well, through each work, home life and community connections.
Congratulations to the organisers, volunteers, fellow sponsors and event participants who enjoyed and challenged themselves on the day, including our senior consultant, Shannon, who flew the flag for our team. It was a fantastic event and we're grateful to have been involved.
Look forward to sharing in the fun with this incredible community next year!
