The Sydney Half is a Half marathon event run around the Sydney Olympic Park precinct. The event will also run complimentary events such as a 10km and 2.5km fun runs. 

Whether you're keen to tackle a half marathon before the warmer months, get a 10km tune up before the Sydney Marathon or want to experience running at the home of the Sydney 2000 Olympics - we've got you covered in the Sydney Half!

The course runs through many of the landmarks of Sydney Olympic Park. Starting on Dawn Fraser Avenue runs through Sydney Olympic Park Athletics Centre,  around the Accor Stadium and finishing on the Athletics Track.
