Western Coastal Running Festival 2026 : Semaphore South
The Western Coastal Running Festival is held in Semaphore South, SA, on a certified coastal bike and walk path. The event uses an AIMS measured loop of 10.55 km. The start and finish are located mid-loop so participants are never more than approximately 5 km from the aid station.
Distances offered
- 5 km
- 10 km
- 15 km
- 21.1 km (half marathon)
- 30 km
Every participant receives a race bib and a finisher medal for each distance. Bibs are not mailed and are allocated at event check-in. Registration normally closes at noon three days before the event date unless extended. Early bird pricing applies for entry periods listed by the organiser.
A themed Western costume award is presented, with a trophy voted by attendees for the person who best represents the theme. Part proceeds support the Australian Cancer Research Foundation.
A virtual run option is available for the event day only. Virtual runners must run on the actual event date, record their elapsed or total time on a tracking service, and send a link or screenshot to the organiser for published results. Virtual entries include a race bib and finisher medal which require collection rather than postage. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
