About

The Canberra Times Marathon Festival in Canberra is Australia's oldest city marathon, first held in 1976, and its 2027 edition runs over 10 and 11 April with a marathon, half marathon, 10 km and 5 km. The 10 km (7:00) and 5 km (8:30) are held on 10 April, while the marathon starts at 6:15 and the half marathon at 8:00 on 11 April.

Run through the heart of the national capital on an IAAF-AIMS certified course, the marathon passes landmarks such as Parliament House, the Commonwealth Avenue Bridge and the scenic shores of Lake Burley Griffin. The festival draws elite athletes and recreational runners alike. The course has moderate climbing (around 380 m in total) on fast, winding roads, well suited to anyone looking to test themselves or chase a personal best. The lively event village is at John Dunmore Lang Place.
