Event Details
Course Description
The race starts and finishes beside Rosebud Skate Park (Nepean Hwy/Boneo Rd). Runners follow the Bay Trail, a blend of paved paths, foreshore boardwalks and light trail sections. The 5 km loop heads 2.5 km towards McCrae before turning back, while the 10 km doubles that distance. The 21.1 km half‑marathon adds a further 5.5 km stretch towards Rye and back, creating a scenic coastal loop. Expect sea breezes, views of the Mornington Peninsula shoreline, and well‑marked turn‑around points. Hydration stations appear roughly every 2.5 km, and the route stays on the left‑hand side of the trail for safety.
Getting There
The start/finish line is at Rosebud Skate Park on the corner of Nepean Highway and Boneo Road in Rosebud, VIC. Parking is available across the road at Rosebud Plaza. For public transport options and detailed directions, please visit the official event website or contact the organisers.
