The second Mackenzie Half Marathon is a fantastic way to explore the stunning Fairlie basin, the Gateway to the Mackenzie.
Starting from the Village Green in the heart of Fairlie, the four running/walking events (2.5km fun run, 5.5 km, 10 km and 21.1km) cater for all levels of ability and fitness.
Start times will be staggered throughout the morning to ensure entrants can support each other.
The Mackenzie Half Marathon, the headline event, kicks off at 10am for participants with an estimated race tome of over three hours, and 10:30am for everyone else. This exciting course includes river walkway tracks, river crossings and views that will take your breath away…. unless the hill climb does it beforehand!
The 10km ‘River Dip’ starts at 11am, followed by the 5.5km ‘Flat Jack’ at 11:15am. We end the day with the Hole in One 2.5km at 12:45pm.
Prizegiving in the Community Hall after the last participant finishes - approx 2pm.
The Flat Jack does not include a river crossing, but wet feet may still be on the menu if there has been a lot of rain as the river track can get quite puddly!
Stay until Easter Monday to experience the Mackenzie A&P show - the largest 1 day show in the southern hemisphere!
