BRIGHTON BEACH MARATHON 42.2K | 21.1K | 10K | 5K

The Brighton Beach Marathon is a Melbourne bayside race held at Green Point in Brighton, offering marathon, half marathon, 10K, and 5K distances. Beach Road is closed to traffic for participants, giving the event a local character distinct from large city marathons. The race benefits the Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation. The courses follow the bayside coastline and are AIMS-certified, known for fast times. This attracts runners aiming for personal bests, and the full marathon also draws first-time distance runners. Aid stations are positioned along the routes, and finishers receive encouragement at the finish line and a medal upon returning to Green Point.
