2023 Entries are officially open
2023 Entries are officially open.
The fast, flat, multi loop course takes in the best of the picture-perfect Cairns Esplanade, the streets of Cairns and the memorable run down the epic finish chute alongside Fogarty Park.
What's your distance going to be in 2023?
Are you inspired enough to tackle a Full Marathon (42.2km)?
Maybe the flat and fast Half Marathon (21.1km) or something a little shorter, like a 10km is your pace.
For those just starting out a 5km run or 5km walk might be the perfect Sunday morning starter.
Something for the kids to join the challenge or to challenge you...the 2km Mini Marathoner dash has the fastest first 100m of any event.
There is an event for all ages and abilities. Whether it’s the 5km walk, the marathon relay or the full marathon, lace up, grab a friend and get that Cairns finish line feeling in 2023.
