The Sydney Marathon, presented by ASICS, will take place on Sunday, 15 September and could be your chance to tick off a bucket-list accomplishment in style.
The Sydney Marathon has been announced as a candidate race for the Abbott World Marathon Majors and is aiming to join the current six marathon majors: Tokyo Marathon, Boston Marathon, TCS London Marathon, BMW-Berlin Marathon, Bank of America Chicago Marathon and TCS New York City Marathon.
The Sydney Marathon would certainly steal the show as one of the world’s most scenic races, passing not only the iconic sites of Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House, but also passing through the city’s leafy suburbs and parks. Furthermore, all Sydney Marathon participants also have unlimited access to the Candidacy Club rewards programme and community.
For those travelling alongside marathon runners, there are also several shorter distance events to take part in, including the Sydney Marathon 10km and Sydney Mini Marathon 4.2km, perfect for families, so it will be a day shared by those who have a passion and love for the sport of running.
Now is the perfect time to decide to take part because 2024’s race promises a vastly improved race-day experience with post-race celebrations and an even greater amount of entertainment around the course.
Finally, what’s the one thing you want to do after you run the race of your life? Relax, eat lots of good food and have fun! We have itineraries that will allow you to combine your big day with the chance to explore wonderful Sydney as well as exploring New South Wales’ stunning landscapes. Perhaps our 11-night Sydney Marathon and Wellness Escape will be the perfect way to keep the spirit of health and wellness alive after your run; retreat to the Blue Mountains to rewind in nature, before heading to the idyllic coastal towns of Port Stephens, Port Macquarie and Byron Bay. Or, our Sydney Marathon with Mountain, Rock & Reef Experience gives you a chance to up the extraordinary as you take on the race in Sydney before spending two nights exploring the dramatic red hues of Uluru and 5 nights in Port Douglas where you can discover the miraculous Great Barrier Reef and the incredible Atherton Tablelands.
