Brighton Running Festival
The Brighton Running Festival takes place at Decker Park in Brighton, QLD, and is presented by Dalton Financial Partners. The event offers several distances that run along the waterfront with views of Moreton Bay and a course between Decker Park and Shorncliffe Pier.
Event distances include:
- Half Marathon
- 10 km
- 5 km
- 2 km Family Dash
The course is described as flat and fast. All event distances are chip timed by Multisport Australia. Finishers receive a themed medal, post-race snacks, sponsor giveaways, and a finisher’s certificate. There is no cut-off time for the 2 km, 5 km, or 10 km events. The Half Marathon has a cut-off time of 3.5 hours.
Practical details provided by the organiser note a car park at Decker Park and nearby street parking. Bus routes 690 and 310 stop at Decker Park. Sandgate train station is approximately a 40 minute walk from the park. Race bibs are printed three weeks before the event and posted two weeks before race day if required; to have a name on a bib, registration should be completed at least three weeks before the event.
The 2 km Family Dash is aimed at getting youngsters involved in outdoor activity. An accompanying adult can run for an additional $10; that adult will not be timed and will not receive a finisher’s medal. A photographer will be present on course. Volunteers are offered benefits including free entry to a future race, morning coffee, and a post event breakfast. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
