Asics Melbourne Marathon

Run in Australia's oldest marathon

Albert Park Road (finish)
(Albert Park Lake)
Melbourne, VIC 3206
+61 (0)3 9381 4666
http://www.melbournemarathon.com.au

This is Australia's oldest and largest single marathon. Besides the 42.2-kilometre jaunt, there is a 21.1-kilometer half marathon. Both are on the same course, which is relatively flat (minus a few rollers) and runs alongside the shoreline, providing pristine scenery as you are pounding away. Aid stations along the course keep you hydrated and if you finish you will receive a certificate and a medal (but no T-shirt, that is AUD25 extra). Entry fee: AUD75 marathon, AUD45 half marathon.
