Overview

Get ready for the 14th annual Husky Running Festival. It is sure to be another crowd pleaser – a flat, fast course on the scenic shores of Jervis Bay. The view is nothing short of perfection, you won’t even notice the kilometres tick over!

This year we’re excited to add a new feature event – a FULL MARATHON! If you couldn’t get enough of racing in this beautiful location, you can get twice as much this year! Along with the half marathon, 10km, 5km and 2km races, there is a distance for everyone. Pack the family up and make a weekend of it!

Huskisson is on the shores of the spectacular Jervis Bay Marine Park within the Shoalhaven. You’ll find plenty of amazing things to see and do, relax on some of the world’s whitest sands meeting the crystal-blue waters along some of the breathtaking panoramic views. Check out the video for the 21km course below.

* These runs will be held within the Triathlon Husky schedule
