Finish Area

The Event Hub will be the place to be to see participants finish and to soak up the event atmosphere. Runners and walkers can recover, wind down and relax, and meet family and friends to enjoy the amazing vibe!

Once you have crossed the finish line there will be water, PURE nutrition, bananas, medical facilities and a rest area available immediately should you require them.

There will be a DJ pumping the sounds, MCs keeping you up to date with snippets of event info, food vendors galore - pretty much all you need to chill
