Wodonga Running Festival
The Wodonga Running Festival is scheduled for Sunday, 11 October 2026 at Willow Park, Wodonga, VIC. The event offers multiple race options and a family-focused 2 km dash on paths linking Willow Tree Park and Gateway Island.
- 21.1 km Half Marathon

- 2 km Family Dash
The course is fully pathed, described as flat and suitable for fast running, and follows routes between Willow Tree Park and Gateway Island. Chip timing for all distances is provided by Multisport Australia. Water stations on the course will provide water and Tailwind Nutrition; specific station locations are listed for each distance.
All Half Marathon, 10 km and 5 km finishers receive a bespoke Wodonga Running Festival Fractel cap. Every participant receives a Wodonga-themed medal, post-race snacks, sponsor giveaways, and an online finisher’s certificate. The Half Marathon has a 3.5-hour cut-off time; there are no cut-off times for the 2 km, 5 km, or 10 km events.
The 2 km Family Dash allows an accompanying adult for an additional fee; the accompanying adult is not timed and does not receive a finisher’s medal. Race bibs are printed three weeks before the event and posted two weeks out; name-on-bib and postal deadlines follow these timeframes. The event village is reachable by walking, cycling, or car; there is no public transport on the Sunday morning and parking is available around Willow Park. A photographer will operate on course, and organisers note there will be other pedestrians, cyclists, and dogs on the paths. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
