Coastal Five is a two-day running festival in Taranaki, New Zealand, featuring five separate races totaling 42.2 km. Runners can enter a single race, select multiple, form a team of up to five, or complete all five for a marathon distance spread over the weekend. Each race is timed individually, accommodating those targeting a specific distance and those aiming to finish all five. The weekend begins with the 21.1 km Coastal Half, a flat coastal route from the Wind Wand to Puke Ariki Landing, followed by a 5 km garden and trail run within Pukekura Park. Day two shifts to Lake Mangamahoe for a 4.5 km cross-country run on rolling forest and farmland trails. This is followed by a 10 km hilly run through native bush at Pukeiti Gardens. The event concludes with a 1.6 km twilight mile at New Plymouth Raceway, with Mount Taranaki and the New Plymouth coastline forming the backdrop for the series.

The Pukeiti 10 km Climb begins at Pukeiti Gardens on Carrington Road in Taranaki and concludes at the New Plymouth Coastal Walkway. This 10 km point-to-point road run or walk commences at 7:00 am, with a 9:30 am cut-off. The route utilizes sealed roads and is suitable for those who prefer running or walking a long downhill section over a flat city course. The course proceeds along Carrington Road from the bush and rural surroundings of Pukeiti towards the New Plymouth coast. A bus transports participants to the start, making parking at the finish the recommended option. This race is one of five events in the multi-day Coastal Five series held in Taranaki. Runners have the option to enter this distance individually or as part of the complete series challenge.
