A group of 18 athletes, who are relaying from Hervey Bay to Townsville, will speak to CQUniversity students and staff about making a difference to those living in extreme poverty throughout the world.

'The Run to Better Days' event is a 1200km run, in a relay format, along the Queensland coast from July 10 to 22. It aims to generate action towards the fight to end global poverty and raise money for Caritas Australia.
