Brighton Running Festival
Presented by Dalton Financial Partners, the Brighton Running Festival is held at Decker Park in Brighton, Queensland. The event offers multiple race distances along the waterfront with views across Moreton Bay.
Distances offered include:
- Half Marathon
- 10 km
- 5 km
- 2 km Family Dash
The course is described as flat and fast, running along the waterfront between Decker Park and Shorncliffe Pier. 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.
The 2 km Family Dash is aimed at involving children in an outdoor running activity; an accompanying adult may run with a child for an additional fee but will not be timed or receive a finisher’s medal. A photographer will be present on course and photos will be published after the race. There will be other pedestrians, cyclists, and dogs on the shared paths.
Decker Park has a car park with additional street parking nearby. Bus routes 690 and 310 stop at Decker Park; Sandgate train station is approximately a 40 minute walk from the park. Volunteer roles are supported and volunteers are offered future race entry, morning coffee, and a post event breakfast as thank you items.
