We have considered feedback from community following the 2024 event and had worked with local businesses, the community and Toowoomba Stakeholder Group to develop a route that would have less impact on local traffic.
In 2025 the marathon course will consist of three laps which will reduce the duration of the road closures in South Toowoomba with the first large lap incorporating Long St and the West Creek Pathway exclusively one-way for runners.
We have included a second lap around Prince Henry Heights offering participants another chance to take in the breathtaking views across the range and minimise the impact on residents.
By incorporating laps two and three and taking the course through the City Centre and Queens Park we give runners a reprieve from the challenging terrain and it creates greater opportunity for community activation and engagement from spectators and local businesses
More road closure details coming soon
