We’ve chosen some of the most stunning places across Australia and New Zealand - city streets, coastal stretches and wine regions - so every Runaway event feels like a mini‑escape as much as a race.
From great hospitality to unforgettable courses, each weekend is built to help you enjoy the run, chase your goals and make memories with friends and family along the way.
With beautiful scenery, local flavour and distances for every ability, our mostly Saturday races (with Sydney and Auckland on Sundays) give you plenty of time to explore, unwind and enjoy the destination long after you finish.
What is better than experiencing one of our Runaway Series events? Experiencing all five. And once you do, you will become one of our Most Valuable Players ‘aka’ a Runaway MVP. It’s super simple, all you need to do is complete all five events in the Runaway Marathon Series and you will be rewarded with the very shiny new Runaway MVP medal, recognising all the stunning Runaway destinations you have run and holidayed in.
