The handicaps will be applied to the results afterward so we can see who ‘won’ according to their adjusted time.
The Long Course runs a half marathon (21.1km) over a double out-and-back course. Starting at the Perth Train Park Playground in line with the big tree, the race goes north on Main Road before going straight at the roundabout (via the path on the right side of the road) to continue north on Haggerston Road. Runners then continue on Haggerston road until the road turns left under the bridge, where the race instead veers right/straight onto the Breadalbane Link path to continue going north. The race then follows the right-hand bend at the Evandale Road roundabout and continues until the first turnaround point at 5.8km into the run (40m before the tree line on the right). Runners then make the return journey back to the Main Road roundabout at Perth before doing another U-turn at 10.6km (on the path in line with the power pole), to complete the same out and back course to Evandale Road. Upon returning to the Main Road roundabout for the second time, runners continue straight through (via the path) and back to the start/finish line at the Perth Train Park Playground to finish!
The Short Course is an out-and-back 2.5km, starting the same as the half marathon. However, instead of going straight through the Main Road roundabout in Perth, runners follow the path to then turn right and continue on Seccombe Street until the turnaround at 1.25km, at the junction with Shervan Court.
The Juniors run an out-and-back course of 1.5km, where the turnaround point is at 750m in, along the path 200m past the Arthur Street junction.
