About the race
We Run The Night is an evening running event held in Mount Maunganui with race options over 21 km, 10 km and 5 km. The courses are multi-lap: the 21 km is four laps, the 10 km is two laps, and the 5 km is one lap. Age categories and entry rules vary by distance: the 21 km is for entrants aged 16 and over, the 10 km for those aged 10 and over, and the 5 km is open to all ages with under 10s advised to be accompanied by an adult who is responsible for them on course.
Event HQ and registration pack collection take place at Mt Drury on Mount Main Beach. Bag storage is available in a secure weatherproof tent at the start/finish area. Water is provided on course at set kilometre points for each distance and also at the finish line.
Prizes include age-group awards for men and women across multiple categories for the 21 km and 10 km, and overall placings for the 5 km. Minor spot prizes are awarded randomly as participants cross the finish line. Late entries are accepted on the day; EFTPOS is not available so payments must be by cash or online banking and a $10 late fee applies. Entries can be transferred up until the Thursday of event week. If a participant misses course cut-offs they may be redirected for safety and will receive a finisher medal and a 10 km result placing.
