Seaside Coastal 2026 - Run Yellow
About the race
The Seaside Coastal event is back for its 11th year and proudly supports the Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) to help #endcancer. Part of the proceeds go to the ACRF.
The event is held in the marathon capital of Australia and runs along the coastal bike/walk path starting from Semaphore South.
The event has a "YELLOW" theme, and a trophy is awarded to the person who best represents this theme, as voted by all in attendance. Everyone is encouraged to wear yellow socks.
Race bibs and check-in
Race bibs are available at check-in on race morning from the start/finish area from 6:15am.
An event email with all relevant details will be sent to registered participants once registration is due to close, a few days before the event date.
Start location
The start is opposite South Tce Semaphore on the coastal bike/walk path.
