Mackay Marina Run
The Mackay Marina Run takes place on 7 June 2026 at Mackay Marina Village and Shipyard, Mulherin Drive, Mackay Harbour, Queensland. The event precinct and finish line are at the boat ramp end of the marina village. The start line is on the Mackay Marina breakwater near the yacht club, about 200 metres south of the precinct.
Multiple race options are offered:
- 21.1 km half marathon
- 10 km run
- 5 km run
- 3 km junior dash
The half marathon has an official cut off time of 3 hours 20 minutes. A pace guideline of 8.30 minutes per kilometre is provided and cut off locations are enforced based on gun time. If a participant's gun finish time exceeds the official cut off, an official result will not be published.
The event supports fundraising activities with the Leukaemia Foundation named as the major beneficiary; event fundraising has raised A$26,016.55. Postrace photography donates 10 percent of annual sales to the Leukaemia Foundation. Trophies are hand crafted from preloved Mackay Sugar cane railway sleepers.
