About this event
The Henderson Newcastle Marathon is a flat, scenic road race in Newcastle, with marathon and half marathon distances on offer. It is scheduled for April 2027 and is designed for runners chasing a fast time as well as those who want to enjoy the city’s harbour and beachside views.
The event description supplied is mostly correct, but one important detail differs in the publicly available event listing: the 2027 race is shown as taking place on Sunday, 18 April 2027, rather than Monday, 19 April 2027. The race is also listed as starting from the Newcastle Foreshore area next to Foreshore Park, after moving from The Station due to site changes and construction.
Runners can expect a remeasured course that is AIMS accredited, with a route that showcases Newcastle’s coastline and harbour. Publicly listed highlights include Honeysuckle Foreshore, Carrington, Nobbys and Newcastle Beach, with the course described as flat and suitable for PB attempts.
According to the event listing, the marathon and half marathon are open to both serious and recreational runners. The course also includes sections along the harbour and beaches, making it one of Newcastle’s most scenic running events.
