About the race

Organisers describe the half marathon course as fast and flat. The half marathon includes a Hybrid category that combines running and walking in the same entry. Virtual options are offered for the half marathon and the 9 km for participants outside the local area; virtual entrants are recorded as virtual results and receive a medal after the event.
The event lists several fundraising organisations associated with the race, including Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand, Canterbury West Coast Air Rescue Trust, and Ronald McDonald House Charities NZ Trust.
