About the event

Set against the serene backdrop of Horsham, Victoria, the third annual Horsham Running Festival promises an invigorating day along the picturesque Wimmera River on September 12, 2027. Participants can choose from a full marathon, half marathon, quarter marathon (10.55km), and a family-friendly 5km walk or run option. For younger runners, there's also a FREE 2km Kids' Dash for under-12s, designed to be an untimed fun event encouraging the next generation of athletes.
The certified course by AIMS ensures accurate distances and times that can count towards qualification for international races. As part of the Western Victoria Marathon Festival series, runners who enter all three events via the Dimboola site are eligible for a special Triple Crown medal and significant discounts on entry fees.
This event aims to foster community engagement by attracting runners from across Australia while encouraging local residents—both young and old—to embrace an active lifestyle. The Horsham Running Festival offers more than just competitive racing, it provides a day filled with scenic beauty and the camaraderie of like-minded individuals celebrating their love for running.
