The TAS GROUP sports project, in which participants are taking on all six continents, continued in Australia. This time, company employees travelled to Sydney and took part in the renowned mass running event, City2Surf.
Employees of TAS GROUP — Rauan Okas, Shokan Alkhabayev, and Enlik Sharimbay — took part in the race.
City2Surf is one of the largest mass running events in the world. This year, around 90,000 participants took to the streets of Sydney. The race was held for the 56th time, and 2026 marked the third consecutive year that all available places were sold out.
Participants had to cover a distance of 14 kilometers. The race started at Hyde Park in the heart of Sydney and finished at the iconic Bondi Beach.
What makes City2Surf special is that alongside professional athletes, the event brings together amateur runners, families, walkers, and people of all ages. That’s why it has long been more than just a race — it has become one of Sydney’s major sporting celebrations.
The race also has a strong charitable component. Since 2008, City2Surf participants have raised more than AUD 63 million for various charitable organizations.
For the TAS GROUP team, taking part in the Sydney race is about more than simply covering 14 kilometers. It is another step in the “TAS GROUP – Six Continents” project and an opportunity to conquer another continent.
Before this, TAS GROUP employees had taken part in running events across Asia, Europe, and North America. Next up are Africa and South America.
