Finals Fever is here and to celebrate one of our most popular events is back this Thursday night with a special Footy Finals edition Pot Run!

Don your footy colours and meet at Near & Far at 6.30pm for a leisurely 5km run with two pub pit stops along the way for a rejuvenating pot! Then it’s back to Near & Far to drink some of the tasty lineup of 18 b**rs on tap at half price and watch the Freo v Hawks final live from Perth!

We’ll be running a brand new route, designed just for this Pot Run with two great b**r stops on the way. This route is a closely guarded secret so the only way to find out is to join us on Thursday 😉

ChickyBoi will also be slinging Melbourne’s best fried chicken to refuel in the bar after the run.

If you can’t make it this week then all is not lost as Near & Far Run Club meets every Thursday at 6.30pm, and there will no doubt be another Pot Run scheduled over the coming months too 🏃 🏃‍♂️
