About the race
The Wagga Race Series at the Riverside Precinct in Wagga Wagga features a flat course along the Wiradjuri Walking Track between Wiradjuri Reserve and Copeland Street. The event offers multiple race distances to accommodate different participants.
Available distances:
- Half Marathon
- 10 km
- 5 km
- 2 km Family Dash
All finishers receive a Wagga-themed medal, post-race snacks, sponsor giveaways, and an online finishers’ certificate. All event distances are chip timed by Multisport Australia. There is no cut-off time for the 2 km, 5 km, or 10 km; the Half Marathon has a cut-off time of 3.5 hours. Race bibs are printed three weeks before race day and posted two weeks before if requested; registering before these deadlines is required to have a name printed or to receive a posted bib.
The 2 km Family Dash is aimed at children with the option for an accompanying adult to run for an additional fee; the accompanying adult will not be timed and will not receive a finisher’s medal. Participants should be aware there will be other pedestrians, cyclists, and dogs on the shared paths and are advised to pay attention to their surroundings. A photographer will be present and photos will be posted after the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
