Cut-off Times: The approved Traffic Management Plan does not allow for a start earlier than 7.30am and ends at 2:15pm. Timing will cease at 2.15pm, marshalls will no longer be on course and we cannot guarantee First Aid support. so this means if considering the Marathon and you are likely to take longer than 6hr 45 minutes  (a pace of 9 min 30 sec per km), we recommend you enter the Half Marathon.

For H&S reasons and our event insurance requests for an early start must  be politely declined

Registration: Race numbers can be collected from Race HQ, Simon St, Feilding on race day from 6.45am
