SUMMARY:2027 Weston Creek Half Marathon and 10km Fun Run
DESCRIPTION:Weston Creek Athletics Club (Canberra Redbacks) is proud to announce the 41st running of our iconic Half Marathon on Sunday 21 March 2027\, along with our 10 km Community Fun Run. \nThe Race Results portal for registrations opens on 1 October 2026. \nShould the event not be able to take place on 21 March 2027 for any reason then participants will be notified of a rescheduled date. \nRace Day Details: \nIn the online registration you will be asked for an accurate estimate of you finishing time. You will be allocated a start wave based on this information and you will be notified by email in the week before the race. You must start in your allocated wave or you will not receive a result. No wave change requests will be allowed. \nThe first wave of the Half Marathon will start at 08:00 while the second wave will start at 08:15. The 10km Fun Run will start at 08:30. \nThe start line for both events is at the main toilet block at the far end of Black Mountain Peninsula. Please ensure that you cross over the e-timing mat at the start of the race to ensure that you are timed. With some luck\, this event may again coincide with the Balloon Festival\, which would present some spectacular views along the course. \nClothing and other gear may be left under cover near the start line where the presentations will take place after the race. \nToilets: In addition to access to the main toilet block near the start line\, we will have four (4) Portaloos on site this year. Please note\, only runners who are members of Red Shed may use their facilities. \nThe finish line is adjacent to the presentation area near the start line. You must cross over the e-timing mat to record a time. There will be hot cross buns\, fruit and drinks in the presentation area after you finish. \nRelay Teams: The first runner will start with the rest of the individual runners\, carrying a baton with an electronic chip (rather than an e-bib)\, which they hand to the next runner at the changeover point. The second and third Relay runners must find their own way to the changeover points. For teams of three\, the 7 and 14 km mark are at the same spot\, which is on the bike path going out just before the Cotter Road Bridge. For Relay teams of two the change-over point is at the event turn around point at 11.1 km. \nAwards Presentation: \nA formal presentation ceremony will be conducted after the event to present medals\, accompanying gift vouchers and many lucky draw prizes. It is planned to commence the presentations for the 10km around 09:45 and the half marathon around 10:15 am. Gift vouchers and medals not collected on the day may be collected from the Runners Shop in Colbee Court\, Phillip at your convenience. \nCanberra Redback medals for place getters will be engraved\, and Runners Shop gift vouchers will be awarded to the first three males and females of both the half marathon and 10km. The first male and first female in the half marathon will receive a keepsake trophy and have their names engraved on the perpetual trophy. Masters age group M/F 40\, 45\, etc to 80) winners in both events will receive Runners Shop vouchers and an engraved Canberra Redbacks medal. There will be an abundance of random pre-drawn barrel draws with gift vouchers\, wine or physiotherapy exercise aids as prizes. \n  \nFurther details about the event will be emailed to entrants prior to the day. \nWelcome back past participants! Invite your friends to join you in the running of this iconic annual event. \nThere will be a couple of masseurs adjacent to the presentation area should you wish a 10-minute massage for a small fee. \nThe Red Shed has shower facilities for members and can serve breakfast after the presentations. \n\n
