Coatesville Half Marathon
The Coatesville Half Marathon is a rural running event held at Coatesville Reserve on the outskirts of Auckland. The course runs on traffic-free local roads and through parkland, with views back toward the city skyline including Sky Tower.
Race options include:
- 21.1 km Half Marathon
- 8 km Classic
- 4 km Fun Run & Walk
- 2 km Kids' Dash
Event services are based at Coatesville Reserve and the adjacent Coatesville Pony Club, which is used for event parking. Race number collection operates on the day before the event and on race morning; Series Pass entrants may receive numbers by courier a week before the first event. A gear drop area and key drop are provided on site; participants must show their race number to enter and exit and should not leave valuables. Portaloos are located in the Coatesville Play Centre car park, about 50 metres from the start arch, with limited facilities on course.
Aid stations are spaced approximately every 4–5 km; each station provides water at the first table and PURE sport drink at the second table. Directional arrows, sandwich boards and marshals mark turns and intersections. Results update in real time via a QR code on the race number and an online results link. All registered finishers receive a commemorative finisher medal. An awards ceremony and spot prize draws share up to $5,000 in prizes; winners must be present and register on the spot prize mats to be eligible.
