The Armstrong Motor Group Wellington Marathon has been Wellington's favourite foot race for almost 30 years. Based at the capital's Westpac Stadium, the fast, flat, scenic waterfront route is suitable for all ages and abilities.
More than 5000 runners and walkers line up for this great annual event – people of all shapes, sizes and ages. If the full marathon seems a bit over the top then you can opt to do a half marathon or a decidedly more doable 10km route. There’s even a kids’ Magic Mile.
The 2014 marathon is coming up on Sunday 22 June. So if you haven’t been preparing it’s time to dust off the trainers. There are some handy hints and tips on the Armstrong Group Wellington Marathon website, including nutrition, injury prevention and suggested training routes.
Bluebridge is proud to support the Wellington Marathon by offering an incentive to southern competitors. That’s right - if you live in the South Island we’ll give you a 50% discount off our flexi sail fares on your Cook Strait ferry travel to the marathon. The discount applies to the runner, their vehicle and even their supporters!
To be eligible for the ferry discount you first need to register your entry on the Wellington Marathon website. The discount code and instructions will then be sent to you with your normal email confirmation from the event.
