INVERCARGILLHALF MARATHON
A FAST HALF
IN THE DEEP SOUTH.

A new road running event for Invercargill is taking shape. Fast, flat and built around the city — coming Winter 2027.

THE IDEA

FAST. FLAT.
INVERCARGILL.

We're working on a new road race built around Invercargill and Queens Park — designed to be genuinely quick, professionally delivered and just as welcoming to someone chasing their first half marathon as someone chasing a PB.

A MODERN
ROAD RACE.

Accurately measured. Electronically chip timed. A simple event experience with the city on show.

PLANNED DISTANCES

SOMETHING
FOR EVERY RUNNER.

WHAT WE'RE WORKING TOWARDS

THE FEEL OF
THE EVENT.

FLAT + FAST

A road course designed for quick running and a genuine shot at a PB.

THE CITY ON SHOW

A route built around Invercargill and Queens Park, keeping the race connected to the city.

RACERS + FIRST TIMERS

Race it hard, take on your first half, or choose a shorter distance and be part of the day.

PROFESSIONALLY DELIVERED

Accurate course measurement, chip timing and proper event infrastructure from the outset.

THIS WEEKEND

WE'RE BUILDING THIS
WITH INVERCARGILL.

The event is still in the planning stage and we'll be in Invercargill this weekend talking with local runners, clubs and the community about what we're working on.

Come and have a chat at the sports club expo on Sunday. Saturday parkrun details can be added here once confirmed.
