Organisers are taking a quick breath. We will announce when registrations are open for 2025 event.
WATCH THIS SPACE.
Participating in one of the four events is a fantastic way to explore the Fairlie Basin, the Gateway to the Mackenzie. The Mackenzie Half Marathon prides itself in providing a unique course that is usually not accessible any other time of the year. A community run event means you'll join in for a great race environment and fun for everyone. All finishers will be presented with a beautiful medal and all funds raised go to the Fairlie Lions.
