Main reason for pacing is enjoying running with different people who need help and encouragement to achieve their goals!

Pacing is a fun way to give back to the run community and help others achieve their goals. Having paced at parkruns and the Carman’s Fun Run Half-Marathon, plus attending some Achillies runs, it’s a great experience to guide people to a point and then say, “Now go for it!” and see them charge off to a PB.

Jordan and Brady McMillan
1 hour 45 minutes
Both Jordan and Brady have experience running the half marathon distance and Run Melbourne is an event they’ve both run before. “Pacing Run Melbourne for us is a great way to encourage other runners to achieve their goals”. This will be the second time Jordan has paced Run Melbourne pacing the 1:50 half marathon group last year and this is Brady’s first time pacing. Both very excited for the challenge and can’t wait to get out there.

I enjoy helping runners chase down their goals, which is why I’m back pacing at Run Melbourne! There’s nothing better than seeing someone hit a PB.
I’ve paced multiple Sole Motive half marathons events, the Ballarat Full Marathon, and the Great Ocean Road Running Festival Full Marathon.

Whilst many see running as an individual pursuit, it is also a team sport. Pacing allows me to contribute back to the wider running community and help others meet their goals and put a smile on their face during the race!
I’ve previously paced multiple events at 10k and half marathon distances including events such as Carmen’s Fun Run and Run Melbourne.

I’ve been running for a few events.
I think It’s about time for me to contribute my tiny part to the running community.

Jack Su

My name is Jiang Su. I decided to become a pacer at Run Melbourne because I know how much it means to have someone by your side helping you hit your goal. As a runner, I’ve been on both sides – chasing a pacer and being the one leading the way.
I’ve paced 8 events before, including Ballarat Half Marathon, Sandy Point, Run For The Young and more. I love the energy and teamwork that comes with pacing.

I’m very excited to be a pacer at Run Melbourne for the second time to encourage and support other runners in achieving their goals. Pacing is my favourite way to give back to Melbourne’s incredible running community!

I started running 3 years ago just before I turned 50 and haven’t stopped since. I run to work everyday and I’m part of the pacing team for the first time. I’m really excited to support every runner to finish the half, especially first timers and older runners. I love ice hockey so let’s chat while we Run Melbourne.

I love running for its beautiful community. Showing up for yourself, friends, and the community – not just the highs, but also the lows. One of the many reasons why I love pacing.
Run Melbourne holds a special place for me – being my first ever Half Marathon and the turning point to my running journey. 2025 will be my 4th Run Melbourne and my 3rd time pacing this amazing event from the 1:45 Half Marathon all the way to the 45min 10K. I’m excited to bring a few home under the 50mins barrier and hopefully help them achieve a new PB!

I am currently training for Sydney Marathon and looking forward to using this event as an opportunity to help others achieve their goals and to get in a solid training run. I love the race day energy and find it rewarding seeing others achieve their goals. Having previously paced at Parkrun and 2XU Wellness events, I’m keen to pace at more events in the future.

Laura Chen

I’m excited to meet fellow runners and to help you chase down that PB. I’ve paced other 10km events such as the Carman’s Fun Run and 2XU Wellness Run, and I’m currently training for the Chicago Marathon myself. I love the energy of race day and sharing my passion for running with others!

Run Melbourne is one of the biggest running events in Melbourne. Being a pacer in this event means I could give back to the community and helping others to achieve their goals. That is special.
Previous Experience: Few times in Park Run, Carman Fun Run – Half Marathon, Melbourne Marathon – Half Marathon (this year).

Amy Brookes

I achieved my own 10km PB at this event last year so I’m looking forward to helping others reach theirs! It’s my first time as an official pacer and I can’t wait.

Arnold Lee

Running is always better with others and there’s no better feeling than surprising yourself and others on what can be achieved when you have another person to push you that little bit more. First time pacing an official event but have dabbled in pacing running clubs and among friends.
