Details

The first 19 km of this race are reasonably flat with the odd hill. At the 19 km mark, you will encounter Mount Wellington at which point you can choose to attempt to run up it, thereby using up all of your remaining energy, or walk it, waving cheerily to the folks who are trying to run it as you pass them.

The last km is extremely enjoyable, but don't expect to set a PB on this half marathon.
