EDUCATIONAL SPEAKERS:
Educational speaker #1 - Dr Michael Lynch!
“Men’s health, built to last”
“The old model of men’s health was simple: tough it out, ignore the signs, and hope for the best. But that mindset is killing too many men too early. In this conversation, Dr Michael Lynch (GP and longevity-focused men’s health expert) breaks down the new, evidence-based rules for staying healthy, strong, mentally sharp, and full of drive, well into your 40s, 50s and beyond. This is health for high-performance living, not just avoiding disease.”
We can’t wait to have Dr Michael join us along with our other guest speakers for the event.
Please remmeber: This event is open to the general public, bring a friend, family member or your next door neighbour and join us for what will be an awesome day!
Educational speaker #2 - our very own Hannah Lovell!
"Movement Through Pain: Is there such a thing?
Join Hannah Lovell, Exercise Physiologist and Co-Founder of Run Move Connect, as she unlocks your understanding of pain and how movement can support your symptoms, create body awareness and build resilience in your strong body and mind in a graded but progressive manner. Allow you to be the controller of your journey!"

Dark FOMA Running Events:
Missing race day vibes in the middle of Tassie winter? Join us for RMC Dark FOMA, a FREE social running event with a 5km, 10km, or 10km relay option (5 x 2km legs). Grab your mates and build a team of 2–5 people for the relay, or go for it solo.
It’s low-key, fun, and all about bringing people together during the coldest part of the year. Perfect chance to get moving, have a laugh, and fill that winter running event gap. Everyone needs to enter individually, even if you're part of a team.
The running event will start at 12:30pm sharp. Please aim to arrive at least 30 mins before to sign in and prepare yourself!
MINI EXERCISE ACTIVATIONS
Neck & Shoulder Release Session with RMC Pilates Instructor, Dayna!
Take a moment to pause and unwind in this gentle, feel-good session designed to melt away any tension from your shoulders and neck. This slow, Pilates-inspired Dark FOMA session focuses on nurturing stretches for the upper body. You’ll leave feeling more spacious, calmer, and connected.
If you can, please bring a small, firm towel (like a rolled-up bath mat) to support you during the session.
Mini Enduro Session with RMC instructor - Jas!
The aim of this mini enduro session is to increase the heart rate via a muscular endurance approach, building the intensity and challenge with layered movement patterns. Participants can choose to prioritise either Pilates-style form or cardio pace, making it adaptable to individual needs. The circuit involves 5 pods with 5 minutes on each. This is sure to be a fun, inclusive way we can all move together!
