1500m Classic

The 1500m Classic is back at QSAC

Since its inception in 2004, the UQ Sport 1500m Classic has been a regular fixture on the Queensland Athletics calendar.

The event consists of only 1500m races, with more than 250 athletes entered across over 20 events for school-age, masters, race walking, and elite-level competitors.

The UQ Sport Athletics Track closes for a re-lay and resurface in mid-October so the 2022 edition of the event will be hosted by the UQ Athletics Club at the State Athletics Facility, Nathan.

In 2022, a minimum prize pool of $2000 will be on offer to placegetters across both the Men’s & Women’s 1500m Classic races.  Vouchers and plaques will be presented to place getters in the other divisional race.
