Forge Athletic at 4/26-28 Roberna Street, Moorabbin, runs more than 30 weekly fitness classes and open gym sessions with personalized coaching.

Tuesday Morning Sessions at Moorabbin Athletics Track

Coached running sessions open to all abilities occur every Tuesday from 6:00 to 7:00 AM at the Moorabbin Athletics Track on Rowans Rd, Moorabbin. These sessions give participants a regular coached start to the week on a dedicated athletics facility.

Friday Speed Work at Duncan Mackinnon Track

Middle-distance runners can join Friday morning speed sessions from 6:00 to 7:00 AM at the Duncan Mackinnon Athletics Track in Murrumbeena. The nearby location allows athletes to maintain focused interval training alongside their other weekly activities.

Saturday Community 5km Event

A free weekly 5km community walk, jog or run is held every Saturday morning across Moorabbin and surrounding areas. This recurring event offers a low-pressure group option that complements the coached track sessions available earlier in the week.

These programs connect directly with larger calendar events scheduled for 2026. The 2XU Triathlon takes place at Elwood on February 22, while Swimrun Australia is set for March 14 along the Bay Trail. Local training at the listed tracks and Forge Athletic box supplies the base preparation for participants targeting those dates.

The combination of fixed weekly times at Rowans Rd and the Murrumbeena track, plus the volume of classes at the Roberna Street facility, gives runners multiple anchored points in their schedule. Athletes can select the coached track work or the broader fitness offerings according to their current focus and availability.
