About the ASICS Gold Coast Marathon

Australia's Gold Coast marathon is a fast winter target race with a large international field, high personal-best demand, and a polished race-weekend setup in Southport.

Course

The marathon starts and finishes near Broadwater Parklands, runs south toward the Miami turn point, then heads north toward Runaway Bay before returning to Southport. The course is flat, scenic, and AIMS certified.

Race-day weather

Early July on the Gold Coast usually means mild winter racing conditions. Runners still need to respect coastal sun and humidity if the morning warms up after the early start.
