We've Done It!

SARRC’s first half marathon of the year is held in the beautiful Clare Valley and is the first event of our Triple Vines Series which includes the Clare Valley, Barossa Marathon and McLaren Vale events. This is the Clare Valley Running Festival. The Clare Valley is one of South Australia’s oldest wine regions and it’s world-renowned for producing elegant Rieslings. The Clare Valley Half Marathon follows part of the Riesling Trail. Come for the run… stay the weekend!

The Chateau Tanunda Barossa Marathon Festival is held every year starting in the scenic vineyard-surrounded Tanunda. The event attracts runners from right across the world, wanting to challenge their fitness levels in the marathon (42.2km), half marathon (21.1km), 10km and 5km events. The course is very flat, perfect for those wanting a quick time or ‘personal best’.

Hills to Henley River Run (renamed from Greenbelt Challenge) takes advantage of sealed off-road trails through Linear Park following the River Torrens / Karrawirra Parri.

Adelaide Marathon is South Australia’s premier running event, and runs along all the major scenic locations within the Adelaide CBD. In 2022, Adelaide will host the 44th edition of this iconic race, which has run without a break now, and probably the only race in Australia that was held even during the heights of COVID-19, in a safe setting. The race is run along a 2-lap course and has an elevation gain of roughly 60 meters, which is nearly flat. The course is very spectator friendly and allows spectators to get to different parts of the course to cheer on the runners with minimal effort. Runners will start at the Bonython Park, part of the heritage listed Adelaide Parklands, and heads on to the Adelaide Oval through the War memorial drive. The course then heads along River Torrens and the Uniloop, the famous stomping grounds of many of the Adelaide running groups. The course then goes through Botanic Park, along the Zoo and back on to River Torrens to finish back at the Bonython Park.

Held in one of South Australia’s best-kept secrets, and just 45 minutes from the CBD, starting and finishing on the grounds of the beautiful Hardys Tintara Cellar door, the half marathon course takes in the Shiraz Trail between McLaren Vale and Willunga, with a loop along the rail trail between McLaren Vale and Seaford. The 10km and 5km courses are a fast dash towards Willunga and back.
