BMA Mackay Marina Run

The BMA Mackay Marina run is an unmissable event on the Australian running calendar.

Widely regarded as Queensland’s most scenic running course, the run is set against spectacular sub-tropical scenery and one of the state’s only blue water rivers.

The flat, fast course is extremely popular with runners offering the perfect platform for achieving your next PB.

Held annually on the first Sunday in June, the run sees a 21.1km course that winds through the coastal city of Mackay. The event is a major drawcard for runners from all over Australia, and also offers 10 and 5km runs as well as a 3km junior dash.

Timed just four weeks out from the Gold Coast Marathon, the BMA Mackay Marina run is an excellent pre-cursor event for those going on to compete in other running events throughout Queensland.

The run raises valuable funds for the Leukaemia Foundation and offers an unrivalled atmosphere and fitness tourism experience.
