The 34th annual Gold Coast Airport Marathon will be staged on Saturday 30 June and Sunday 1 July 2012 in one of the most popular holiday destinations in the world in Queensland, Australia.
Regarded as one of Australia’s premier sporting events, the Gold Coast Airport Marathon is set to attract more than 25,000 participants of all ages and abilities from Queensland, interstate and overseas.
All competitors will enjoy the beautiful Gold Coast conditions in the full 42.195km Gold Coast Airport Marathon, ASICS Half Marathon, Southern Cross University 10km Run, Queensland Health 5km Challenge and Junior Dash 4km and 2km races.
The Gold Coast Airport Marathon course is renowned for being flat and scenic, taking in the beautiful Broadwater and surf beaches. The Gold Coast climate is traditionally good for running, with low humidity, no wind and mild temperatures, creating great conditions to achieve a personal best time.
Huge crowds of supporters will provide ‘Runspiration’ and all finishers will be rewarded with a commemorative medal and certificate, as well as a shirt or cap.
