Coastal Classic - Taieri Mouth
The Coastal Classic at Taieri Mouth on November 8, 2026 presents run and walk courses that use gravel roads, farm paddocks, coastal tracks, beaches and wetlands. The event is organised by TM Events Group in association with the Taieri Mouth Amenities Society and returns profits to the local Taieri Mouth community.
Courses include a mix of family options, recreational walking and longer challenge distances. The event uses a separate course from the bike events and provides access to privately owned farmland on a once a year basis. Participants are timed, receive positions in relevant categories and overall placings, and place getters in each category are acknowledged. All runners and walkers are eligible for spot prizes. The Seascape Cafe stop offers complimentary coffee or tea with a muffin along the route.
Age rules and registration details are specified by the organisers. The 21 km event has a minimum age of 14; the under 14 beach race has a minimum age of 10. Applications from entrants under minimum ages may be considered with adult consent and at the discretion of the Coastal Classic committee. Online registration opens June 1, 2026 and a late fee applies after November 4, 2026.
