Sunshine Coast Marathon Festival
09-Aug-24 to 11-Aug-24
  • Alexandra Parade, Alexandra Headland

  • Atlas Multisports

The 7 Sunshine Coast Community Running Festival is one of the most-loved running festivals in Australia.  Since its inception the 7 Sunshine Coast Marathon has raised over $1.5 million for charity and community groups.

Located on the stunning Sunshine Coast, Queensland an hour’s drive north of Brisbane this not-for-profit event has been timed to make the most of the ideal Queensland winter running conditions. Blue skies, low humidity and mild temperatures combined with a flat course always enable fast times. The course record currently stands at 2:18:30 set by Ethiopian, Samuel Woldemanuel in 2015.

Event distances include the Marathon, Half Marathon, 10km, 5km and the 2km. Each road race follows the stunning coastline of Alexandra Headlands with white sandy beaches and spectacular vantage points alongside the ocean. The Half Marathon is a one loop course with Marathon entrants completing a multi loop course (1 x 21km + 2 x 10.5km’s) making the most of the on-course entertainment and crowds of spectators before a red carpet ‘hero’ finish.

In 2024 the 7 Sunshine Coast Marathon Festival will host the Queensland Road Running Championship over the Half Marathon as well as the Australian Championship over the Half Marathon.

With a distance to suit every ability and age group, this community-focused, world-class athletic event caters to all those wanting to take part.
