Run Fest Port Macquarie
Run Fest Port Macquarie is a multi-distance running event held in Port Macquarie, New South Wales. The event features a variety of race distances to accommodate different preferences:
- Marathon
- Half Marathon
- 10 km Fun Run
- 5 km Fun Run
- 3 km Family Fun Run
The race precinct is centered at the Town Green, where participants assemble before their respective events. The course utilizes rolling or wave starts to manage participant flow, and all events are net timed, meaning the timing chip activates only when a runner crosses the start line.
Participants can find aid stations approximately every 2 km along the course, providing water and hydration drinks. The course includes several landmarks such as West Port Park and Town Beach. Medical personnel and first aid services are stationed at the race precinct and at specific points along the route.
Registration includes a timing chip integrated into the race bib and a finishers medal upon completion. For the Marathon, Half Marathon, 10 km, and 5 km events, trophies are awarded to the first three male and female finishers based on net times. There is a secure bag storage area at the Town Green for competitors. Participants must collect their race bibs and kits during the designated check-in times on the Friday or Saturday prior to race day, as no collection is available on Sunday.
