Pro tips

  1. 01

    Two-Loop Plan

    The course is two laps: a 16.1 km first loop, then a 5 km second loop. Hold back on the longer first loop so you can run the shorter second loop strong.

    Cold Morning

    Typical race-day temperature is 6.5°C. Wear layers you can discard or tie around your waist, and don't overheat after the first few kilometers.

    Flat with Bumps

    The profile is flat with only about 70 meters of total climb. Use the wide boulevards to keep a steady rhythm, but stay aware of small rises that can break your pace.

    Crowd Support

    Spectators gather in central areas, especially near the finish at the National and University Library. Use those crowds for a boost in the final kilometers.

    Three-Hour Limit

    The race has a three-hour time limit. That's a relaxed pace for a half marathon, so even if you're new to the distance, you have room to finish without rushing.
