SUNDAY 13 September 2026

Course Description:

The Barossa Run is an ‘out and back, looped’ course, with loops consisting of 21.1km. It starts at Lyndoch and continues along the Barossa Walking Trail to St Hallet’s Winery before reversing. Participants can enjoy a start and finish right next to a winery, in the very heart of Australia’s wine region – with a course that runs along and through several vineyards. Those running shorter than 21.1km will run an abbreviated out-and-back loop, while those running farther than 21.1km will do multiple loops.

Course Map & Elevation

Aid Stations:

There will be 3 aid stations on the loop. The primary aid station is present at the start/finish of each loop. The next aid station is passed approximately 6km into the loop and the third aid station is passed at the 21.1km turnaround.  Runners are recommended to bring their own hydration supplies if they feel they need more water. All aid stations will have lollies and hydration; the primary aid station will also offer first aid.

Start Times:

Early starts at 6am are available for this event. Late starts are available upon written request and valid reason.

Bib Collection, Standard Race Briefing, & Start Location:

Bib collection is exclusively available on the day, starting 30 minutes prior to the wave’s start time. The race briefing will begin promptly 15 minutes prior to each wave’s start time. 

English as a Second Language (Simplified) Race Briefing

If English isn’t your first language, you may have experience difficulties understanding the accent, speed, or event-specific words in the briefing. Don’t worry – we can help! We have an ESL expert on our team who gives a simplified race briefing. The simplified race briefing will use simpler words, slower speech, and more one-on-one contact. Even if English is your first language, but you prefer quieter race briefings with more opportunities to ask questions, this is the briefing for you! The ESL (Simplified) Race Briefing will occur at 7:30am & 8:35am for this event.

Price List:

Podium

GoodRunnings endeavours to have a podium presentation within 30 minutes of the final podium placer crossing the finish line. Podium medals are available for traditional event distances and podium certificates are available for non-traditional event distances. Traditional event distances include 5km, 10km, 21.1km, 42.2km, 50km, & 60km. Non-traditional event distances include 1km, 2.5km, 7.5km, 15km, and 30km.

Only those who competed at the standard start time (and ran the prescribed course) are eligible for podium recognition. This ensures that all of those on the podium competed under the same conditions. If a registrant is not present during the podium ceremony, they forfeit their medal/certificate and/or podium prize. Podium medals, certificates, and/or prizes will NOT be posted out after an event in situations where the winner failed to be present during the podium presentation.

Timing:

The timing of this event is ensured by chip timing and recorded by a timing mat, with a vertical antenna for back up. Additionally, video footage is recorded by two separate cameras and reviewed if there are discrepancies or questions. To help determine the segment of the footage to review, GoodRunnings may ask competitors for their estimated finish times and/or review third party records, including (but not limited to) Strava. GoodRunnings reserve the right to request a competitor’s GPS recording if it is deemed there is a valid concern about failure to follow course directions and can DQ a runner for failure to provide a GPS record under those circumstances.
