GETTING THERE

Just 40 minutes from the centre of Sydney, Raging Waters Sydney is located off the M4 and can be accessed from the East via Prospect Highway Exit, or from the West via Reservoir Road Exit. There are over 1000 car spots on site with disability car spots available to vehicles displaying correct permits.

OTHER DETAILS

Prizes based on your own improvement rather than the fastest!

All event distances are professionally chip timed by Multisport Australia.

Each finisher will receive a new themed medal at the finish line as well as other sponsor giveaways and snacks.

The 2k race is a Family Dash event aimed at getting youngsters involved in healthy outdoor activities. An accompanying adult can run with their child for an additional $55 which also includes the day pass to Raging Waters. Register your child first, then add an accompanying adult bib during the registration options. Please note the accompanying adult will not be timed and will not receive a finishers medal.

There is a cut off time of 1 hour 40 minutes for the 10k to allow the roads to reopen. There are no cut off times for the 2k or 5k.

There will be a photographer present on the course taking photos of you, which will be posted on our socials following the race.

DO YOU TRAIN WITH FRIENDS OR A SOCIAL GROUP?

At any Race Hub Australia event, every entrant is eligible to win the big prize. We’re different from other races, in the fact that we award prizes based on overall improvement to individual and team personal bests.

To be eligible for the team prize, you must have a current personal best and enter a team of 4+ runners who have all joined Race Hub Australia’s Strava group.

For example, four members of Rachel’s Runners have entered Race Hub’s inaugural Parramatta 10km event. Prior to the event those four members had an average PB between them of 52 minutes and 30 seconds. At completion of the Race Hub event, they smashed their PB and now have an average PB of 50 minutes and 30 seconds. Therefore their average improvement within the team is 2 minutes (don’t worry, leave the maths with us).

WANT TO VOLUNTEER AT THE RAGING WATERS RUNNING FESTIVAL?

We are always on the lookout for volunteers on race day to help out with course marshalling and registration. It’s a great way to experience the buzz of race day without having to tie up the laces. In addition to being amongst the energy of the race, Race Hub Australia are delighted to offer volunteers the following as a thank you for their help on the day:

  • Free entry to the park for the full day post race
  • Free morning coffee & snack
