Race Morning
What time should I arrive?
In general, if you have already registered and received your race pack (you have your race number and timing chip), you should arrive at the race venue no later than 30 minutes prior to your race start time.
How do I get there, Is there a parking area?
You can park in one of the Sydney Olympic Park parking stations. We strongly suggest you park in P2 (aquatic centre) and walk to the start which is at Accor Stadium (corner of Edwin Flack and Dawn Fraser). Parking validation will be available at the Sydney Olympic Park Athletics Centre Reception. For more information on parking, please click here.
How do I get there, Is there any Public Transport?
The closest bus stop is along Dawn Fraser Avenue, right outside the Athletic Centre. The bus routes that service this stop are 525 – Parramatta to Strathfield, and 526 – Burwood to Rhodes.
The closest train station is within Sydney Olympic Park along Dawn Fraser Avenue, approximately 750m from the Athletic Centre main entrance. The train to Olympic Park only sets out from Lidcombe station, which is along the T1 North Shore and Western Line.

Is there a bag drop?
There will be NO designated bag drop area available.
How to a get to the start line?
The Start Line is outside Accor Stadium on Dawn Fraser Avenue and across the road from the NSW Rugby League Centre of Excellence. Therefore if catching the train you need to next the train station towards Accor Stadium then continue down Dawn Fraser Avenue until you reach the start line.
If arriving via the bus on Dawn Fraser Avenue you will be dropped off extremely close to the start line and will only need to walk to the
NSW Rugby League Centre of Excellence to find the start line.
If you are Parking in P2 near the Aquatic Centre the easiest way to reach the start line is to follow Shane Gould Avenue walking towards the Athletics Centre to Edwin Flack Avenue. Once you reach Edwin Flack Avenue you turn right to walk in front of the Athletics Centre. If you need to collect your bib this is where you would enter the Athletics Centre to pick up your bib. Once you pick up your bib, follow Edwin Flack Avenue until you reach Dawn Fraser Avenue where you will turn right again. Once you are on Dawn Fraser Avenue you can follow this road until you reach the start line.
