Wondering if a 5k is right for you?

A 5k race is a great stepping stone if you’re new to running and want to get involved. If you’ve got your heart set on completing a 10k races, half marathon or full marathon, a 5k is a good place to start, or to keep up your fitness during training. We cater to all levels of runners - whether it’s your first time, or you’re a seasoned veteran. We have friendly on-the-ground support workers available on race day to make sure you have everything you need to succeed. Each kilometre will be accurately marked out, so you know exactly where you’re up to on the day - and it’ll be impossible for you to get lost or lose the course. The atmosphere at our 5k events are truly electric and motivating - you’re sure to feel pumped up and ready to cross that finish line!
