To our wonderful Warburton Up and Running family and friends, after much deliberation we have again decided not to hold our event this year given the current uncertain times. Fingers crossed for 2023.
STAY SAFE EVERYBODY, TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER AND KEEP RUNNING 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Dear Warburton Up & Running Family.

With Victoria in a current state of emergency, the DHHS can re-impose restrictions at any time, and with the current pattern of the state of emergency being renewed with no end in sight, we can’t take the risk of having our event cancelled.

We're looking forward to showcasing Warburton's pristine environment to our running community once more in 2022

Happy Sunday!

Ryan Bradshaw, a PhD Student from RMIT University, is conducting a study on attention control, mindfulness, and endurance running.

His research is investigating the strategies used to control attention, thought, and emotion during running, and the effect these may have on executive brain function and general self-control capacity in everyday life.

As part of this research, Ryan is seeking 300 runners to complete 2 online surveys.

The surveys take 25 minutes each to complete.

Runners of all levels and experience are welcome.

The first survey can be accessed via this link:

If you have any questions, please contact Ryan: [email protected]

Recruitment will be open until July of 2020.

One of our cherished sponsors 👍

We just love seeing reviews like these! Did you have a similar experience during your stay at Oscar's?

To all of our amazing Warburton up and running family. We hope you are all well and staying safe. Now, more so than ever before, it is important to ensure we move each and every day. A great boost for our immune system and mental health. So run, walk, skip or dance like nobody is watching, but just keep moving. Feel free to share with us how you are staying active.

This year has been a challenging one so far. Carrying out the efforts of everyday life can be tough enough - and living with our new reality of COVID-19 is quite another challenge to be navigated.

Industries across the world will be hard-hit and as people enact social distancing measures and postpone their holidays, our restaurant and accommodation business will surely feel the pressure. As events are cancelled and travel declines, we are all considering how to continue to move forward.

Though this situation can feel frightening and stressful, we are practicing a calm, flexible, and compassionate mindset.

We've chosen to see this as an opportunity to slow down and practice kindness. To help our neighbours. Comfort our community. To remember that, beneath all the chaos of modern life, there is room for harmony and care. We are all humans, each of us trying the best that we can.

Oscar's on the Yarra is open for business, and remains a place of peace and relaxation. We are blessed with wide-open spaces and fresh air. If you're feeling like you need some time away - even for a short escape - know that you are always welcome here.

Though our normal standards of cleanliness are high, we have expanded upon these protocols in our kitchen, restaurant, and housekeeping operations. We care deeply about the health of our guests and staff, and we're taking extra steps to ensure that we're doing our part in maintaining high standards of hygiene and care.

We're asking all of our guests to be considerate of their fellow travellers by following recommendations from the World Health Organization to minimise the transference of viruses (washing hands with soap and water, avoid touching the face where possible, etc). We are also asking that guests who have been to Australian or international public exposure sights seek advice from health authorities, and to inform us of any change in health during and after staying with us.

And last, but not least, we are asking our community to practice mindfulness in our everyday activities. Remember to breathe. Remember to care for your mind as carefully as you care for your body. Remember to care for each other. We will overcome this challenge - and we will be stronger for it.

Below are some resources to help you take care of your whole self. They are simple but effective ways to improve your quality of life while you navigate this challenging time.

And remember that if you need to escape now to find some quiet, or when you're ready to venture out after all of this settles, we'll be here.
