Club Corner

Welcome to Club Corner!

We know how great it is to race with your clubmates. So last year we introduced Club Corner, which provides 

  • A designated space near the starting line for your club gazebo – you’ll be on the finishing straight, opposite the main spectator area, so it’s great profile for your club! Bring your family and supporters and we’ll kit them out with official race whistles and cheer package so they can cheer you across the finishing line. You’ll also have a perfect spot for a post-race BBQ and celebration!
  • Access to dedicated toilets only available to runners in Club Corner – relax in the knowledge that you have your own toilets, so you can spend more time preparing for the race and less time in the toilet queues.
  • Complimentary pre-race nutrition – energy gels, isotonic drinks and water supplied free of charge by us to make sure you start the race in optimum condition.

We only have space for 20 clubs, so get those entries coming in to make sure your club is one of them. Contact Linda to express your interest, and we will allocate club corner spaces to the 20 interested clubs with most Marathon and Metric Marathon entries.

As with all such events, our events would not be possible without the help of a huge team of volunteers.
