Organiser's Description
It's never too early to start thinking ahead!
We're starting 2026 the only way we know how, with a race! After you ring in the New Year, take a nap then come out, and join us and RUN (or walk) into the New Year! We're putting on the #NYD5K or #NYD5K&HALFMARATHON.
We thought it would be appropriate to kiss 2025 goodbye, and are offering the NYD5K and #NYDHALFMARATHON for just $26! We'll have the same great course, music & an awesome Finisher Medal!
