About the Auckland Half Marathon

The Half Marathon starts at King Edward Parade in Devonport and weaves through Takapuna before joining the Northern Busway, a smooth road that is open to runners only on race day. The course builds to the Auckland Harbour Bridge, crosses it, and descends into the city past Westhaven Marina and through the Wynyard Quarter. It finishes in Victoria Park on Fanshawe Street. The course is rolling.
