BUILT FOR
YOUR NEXT PB
The festival’s most popular distance takes runners over two laps of the Esplanade course and wide Cairns streets. Half marathon runners start with the marathon and share the same race-morning atmosphere and finish precinct.
Flat and fast, it works equally well for runners stepping up to 21.1km and those chasing a PB.

If you choose to wear headphones, please ensure the volume is at a reasonable level so that you are able to hear instruction from course officials. Please keep to the left when possible, to allow for faster runners to pass easily. Failure to follow instruction on course will result in automatic disqualification.
