About the Event

Celebrate Australia Day on the coast at the Australia Day Coastal Run on January 25, 2026, hosted by the iconic low-key coastal fun running series at Semaphore South. Choose from four scenic distances—5K, 10K, 15K, or a half marathon (21.1K)—all starting at 7:00 AM along the beautiful seaside path, with each participant receiving a race bib and commemorative finisher medal. Embrace the festive theme by dressing in your most patriotic gear for a chance to win the special Australia Day trophy, while supporting a meaningful cause as part proceeds benefit the Australian Cancer Research Foundation.

Check-in opens at 6:15 AM, followed by a race briefing and group photo at 6:45 AM, ensuring a friendly, community-focused start to the national holiday. For those unable to attend in person, virtual and self-supported options are available, offering flexibility while still contributing to the coastal running community. Whether you're chasing a personal best along the AIMS-measured loop or enjoying a relaxed holiday run by the sea, this event delivers genuine South Australian coastal spirit.
