Wollongong Running Festival
The Wollongong Running Festival is a multi-distance running event held in Wollongong. The festival offers measured and accurately timed races with separate options for adults and children.
Race options include:
- Half Marathon
- 10 km
- 5 km Fun Run
- 2 km Kids Fun Run
Race bibs contain a hidden timing chip to record accurate results from the start line to the finish line. Participants in the 10 km and Half Marathon receive a free WRF tee valued at $70. All finishers receive a tangible memento to mark completion.
The course passes coastal locations and local points of interest, with sections through parkland and bushland, and includes ocean views and Wollongong landmarks. Event volunteers provide on-course support and safety assistance. Organisers publish practical information for participants, including entry options, team entries, road closures, transport details, frequently asked questions and a cancellation policy.
The festival presents options for a range of ages and running experience by offering separate race distances and a dedicated kids event. Official race results and event photographs are made available after the race. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
