Grange Jetty Reserve serves as the central point for the Gold Coastal Run, with the start and finish located near Grange Jetty Cafe and the Grange Hotel. The event has a community atmosphere, with a portion of the proceeds supporting the Australian Cancer Research Foundation and a relaxed participation mix of walkers and runners across all skill levels.
The course is an AIMS-certified loop utilizing the Grange/Henley Beach coastal bike and walk path. It heads south towards Henley Beach before returning, offering views of Gulf St Vincent. The path is flat and fast, allowing participants to find a comfortable pace and maintain energy for the return to the reserve. All participants receive a finisher medal, and early entries include a specially engraved medal. A unique themed trophy is also awarded under the RUN GOLD theme.
