West Beach turns into one big costume party this Halloween — and everyone’s invited.
Bring the kids, bring your running crew, bring the friend who “doesn’t run.” This isn’t about chasing a personal best — it’s about showing up in your best (or worst) costume, moving together as a family or a squad, and having the kind of morning that ends with a coffee in hand and a medal around your neck.
Pick your distance, pick your character, and let’s see what West Beach looks like full of zombies, superheroes, and pumpkins on the run.
The essentials:
- Date: Saturday, 31 October 2026 — West Beach
- Race pack collection: 6:30am – 8:30am (your shirt is waiting for you here)
