About the race
Corporate Challenge Wellington is an evening 5 km team running and walking event held at Waitangi Park, Te Aro, on Wednesday 11 November 2026. The course is a flat, two-lap waterfront route made up of an initial 2 km lap and a second 3 km lap that together follow the public esplanade around the harbour. The route passes Clyde Quay, crosses pedestrian bridges, runs alongside Te Papa and offers views of Whairepo Lagoon before extending toward Shed 6. The event takes place entirely on wide footpaths with no road closures; participants should be aware of normal traffic movements near maintenance access points and resident parking areas. Event HQ is located in Waitangi Park, with team tents set up opposite the main stage.
Team tents may be brought by teams or rented as a package that includes a 3x3 gazebo with three walls, a trestle table and seating for four, for $250 plus GST. Rental tents are positioned early and are typically closest to the stage area. Competitions include individual and team awards. Team competitions are separated into male and female teams and are ranked by Team Time, calculated as the sum of the top three finishers using Gun Time.
Individuals are ranked for individual awards by Gun Time; online results are presented by Net Time. The CEO Challenge is open to nominated senior officers. Industry category awards are assigned by the organiser from a listed set of categories. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
