Event Overview
Townsville 10K Series: Race 4 – Freshwater Loop is scheduled for Saturday, 12 September 2026, starting from Walter Nesbit Park in Pallarenda, Queensland. Hosted by Townsville Road Runners, this event is listed as the final race in the four-race Townsville 10K Series. Two distances are offered: a 10km long course and a shorter 5km option. Entries are open to both runners and walkers.
What the Course Demands
As the final round of the series, pacing and execution matter, especially if you have raced earlier events. With both 5km and 10km options, runners can choose between a shorter, faster effort or a steadier 10km run. The course is a mix of road and trail at Walter Nesbit Park, so footing can vary.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners and walkers who want a clearly defined 5km or 10km target within a local series format. The 5km can work well for newer participants or those returning to consistent running, while the 10km better fits athletes comfortable holding a sustained effort. It also suits locals looking for a structured race-day benchmark late in the season.
