Canning Street 1k

An unsanctioned running race, illuminated by shadowed street lights and intermittent camera flashes, the bitumen lay bare for the thousand-step dash.Heat after heat, the street was a canvas, for runners to express themselves, spectators to sing, and artists to create.

Residents became enchanted by the injected energy of a normally dormant street. An ecosystem of crews from around the city gave birth to new ways of moving through conversations and celebrations.

The night’s winner: Curiosity. A salute to ideas that are yet to come.The Canning Street 1k — A signal of a thriving web of run culture in the streets of 3000.The time is now. It’s already later than you think.
