The fisiocrem GC50 Run Festival is a weekend of running, entertainment and celebration on the Southern Gold Coast. The festival includes multiple race distances across Saturday and Sunday, with an additional yoga session in Coolangatta on the preceding Friday.
Courses are presented as flat and scenic, with some events held on closed roads. The Half Marathon runs on a new, revised course with extra road closures. The 50 km Ultra is described as the festival flagship and uses a completely flat coastal route. The 5 km community run takes place on Saturday at sunset, and the 10 km is held on Sunday morning. The Kids Dash offers two short-distance options on Saturday afternoon.
Additional festival elements include an event precinct, pacers, published results and records, and organised fundraising opportunities. The event notes a 30 year history and acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land, the Kombumerri people of the Yugambeh language region. Information about accommodation packages, travel and local dining is provided as part of event planning resources. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
