Lake Mac Run 2026

Lake Mac Run starts and finishes at Warners Bay on the Lake Macquarie foreshore in New South Wales. Participants can choose a half marathon, a 10.5km run, or a 4km Family Scamper, catering to both regular runners and families. The race uses a traffic-free route with a flat profile and a smooth running surface, with no major hills. The course runs between Warners Bay and Speers Point beside Lake Macquarie. Half marathoners complete two and a quarter loops, the 10.5km runners complete one full loop, and the Family Scamper runs out 2km before turning back. The event attracts up to about 1,000 participants and has the feel of a local community race, with toilets, parking, medical support, hydration stations, and food and drink available around the event area.
