7 Cairns Marathon

Queensland’s reef-and-rainforest setting provides this 7th edition with a fitting "sporting challenge in a dream setting." The 7 Cairns Marathon is situated where a run can coincide with the Great Barrier Reef, the Daintree rainforest, and the Kuranda Scenic Railway, making it feel like a "360-degree adventure" rather than just a race weekend. The course is a "unique route, between lively city and spellbinding seafront," a combination runners recall when fatigue sets in. Sprinters, endurance runners, families, and friends are all welcome. Fundraising for charity partners adds purpose beyond chasing a personal best. Expect expansive Queensland scenery, seaside air, and the satisfaction of local races where effort contributes to a greater cause.
