Feilding Festival of Running
Feilding Festival of Running is a multi-distance event held at Timona Park in Feilding with the football clubrooms on Simon Street serving as Race HQ. Entry fees range from $10 to $80. The event includes road and off-road courses and a mix of individual and club categories.
Distances offered include:
- Marathon - out-and-back route, completed twice by marathon entrants
- Roy Lamberton Memorial Half Marathon - run and walk options
- 10 km - out-and-back route, run or walk
- 2.5 km and 5 km - off-road grass course around Timona Park, one or two laps
The marathon, half marathon and 10 km use an out-and-back course shown on MapMyRun. Water stations are provided at about 5 km intervals and participants are encouraged to carry personal fluid supplies. Facilities at Race HQ include toilets and showers. There are merit prizes and a range of trophies for fastest finishers, walk categories, age adjusted awards and club team results. Club trophies are based on the cumulative times of a club's first three marathon finishers, with club affiliation noted at entry.
The event operates within a defined event period and has cut-off and timing constraints; participants likely to exceed 6 hours 45 minutes for the marathon are recommended to enter the half marathon. Marshal coverage and first aid support are limited outside the event operating period. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
