This is the perfect distance if you are stepping up from the 12km or warming up for next year's marathon!

The Half Marathon had its inaugural run in 2007 and has been a hugely successful addition to the event programme growing rapidly in its first five years. Participation numbers in 2011 once again eclipsed those ever seen before for a race of its distance in Perth. In 2012 we expect the Half Marathon to attract over 3000 runners.

The Course – 21.1km

The route takes runners on a scenic loop of Kings Park before re-joining the traditional 12km route through Subiaco, Perry Lakes Reserve and on to City Beach.
