Sunday 13 July – Half Marathon
Unfortunately, the marathon course option for this event has been cancelled
due to the recent weather damage to tracks and infrastructure.
Other options were considered, including a double loop
but a viable and safe alternative could not be implemented at this time.
The NBS Half Marathon, NBS 10km and the Waimea 4-Person Relay
will be going ahead, but the recent weather and conditions
have necessitated some course alterations.
The start line & briefing for the Half, 10km & Relay
will be at the junction of Kerry Marshall Drive & Main Rd Stoke,
just a short walk from the Saxton Field parking spots.
Have a look at Google maps Start Line and Parking Spots.
The organising team have worked hard to reorganise this
event around the restrictions caused from the recent severe weather
events and would appreciate your support.
Briefings for all events will be at the Start Line.
Please be there for this 10 minutes before your start.
Start times:
9:00am: NBS Half marathon: ($65)
9:00am: Waimea 21km 4-Person Relay ($120 per team)
