Live stream: How to watch the finish line from the iconic Bridge to Brisbane

For the first time in its storied history, the finish of the Bridge to Brisbane fun run has been captured in full as 30,000 competitors fulfil their dream. See yourself and friends cross the finish line.

There’s the equine race which stops the nation on the first Tuesday in November and then there’s the famous two-legged variety which brings Brisbane to a standstill just weeks before.

And the latest edition hasn’t disappointed, with no less than 30,000 plus athletes pounding the pavement from the Gateway Bridge landmark to the Brisbane Showgrounds.

The Sunday Mail partnered with KommunityTV to bring a live stream of the iconic fun run, which this year tapped into the energy-sapping challenge for the 27th occasion.

First accross the line in the Sunday Mail/Transurban Bridge to Brisbane 10km fun run was now dual winner Tim Vincent, with Eloise Walling claiming the women’s division.

Vincent said post race that he was looking forward to having a beer to toast his latest achievement.

“Don’t worry, we will let loose with a few but then knuckle down with training again,” Vincent told The Courier-Mail.

Like most runners, Vincent claimed coming up Kingsford Smith Drive was mentally tough but he found something special within to push on for his second victory.
