Race 6 starts at Henley Beach, following the coast around the jetty area with Gulf St Vincent alongside. It feels like a runner's race: flat, sealed, and practical, part of a series focused on self-supported marathons, not expo distractions. First-timers can find their pace, and experienced runners have a consistent course to train on.
The course is an out-and-back lap from Henley Jetty toward Largs Jetty, primarily on beachfront pathways with views of Gulf St Vincent. Expect smooth road running, ocean breezes, and minimal elevation changes. Some sections offer natural shade, but runners should be prepared for the elements. A notable feature is the relaxed setup: no cut-off times, water stations along the route, and a supportive crowd that understands individual pacing.
