McGrath Launceston Running Festival

Sunday, 31st May 2026

Arguably Australia's fastest road race. The Half Marathon and 10km is favourite for runners of all abilities chasing a personal best. While the 5km and mile are ideal for the up and coming runner or fitness enthusiast.

The mixture of a pancake fast course, historically cool but fast conditions and deep fields makes it a must race for any runner.
