Pace yourself in paradise

REGISTRATIONS are now open for one of the biggest mainland attractions in the Whitsundays. The Cruise Whitsundays Airlie Beach Running Festival is now in its sixth year and attracts around 2,000 people including runners, their families and friends. The focus of the festival, which is due to take place on Sunday, July 22, has changed slightly this year, with proceeds going towards two vital services in the region – the RACQ CQ Rescue Helicopter and the Ronald McDonald House, in Townsville.

Tourism Whitsundays Sales & Marketing Manager Tash Wheeler said the Airlie Beach Running Festival had become one of the biggest events on the #Whitsundays mainland calendar. 

“The Airlie Beach Running Festival is a great event that sees the sport’s best athletes running along with members of the local community and there is a fantastic atmosphere in town the whole weekend,” she said. “Many entrants add a few days either side of the running festival so they can have a holiday in the wonderful Whitsundays at the same time. What more could you ask for – a sporting event that the whole family can participate in with a stay in paradise as well!”
