The Half Marathon had its inaugural run in 2007 and
has been a hugely successful addition to the event programe growing
rapidly in its first four years. Participation numbers in 2010 once
again eclipsed those ever seen before for a race of its distance in
Perth. In 2011 we expect the Half Marathon to attract close to
3000 runners.
| The Course – 21.1km |
The route takes runners on a scenic loop of Kings Park before
re-joining the traditional 12km route through Subiaco, Perry Lakes
Reserve and on to City Beach. |
