RACE BIB COLLECTION

• Race bib collection: Competitors must pick up their race bib at either the Friday night pre-event registration at the Pauanui Village Centre from 3.30pm-8.00pm, or at the Saturday morning pre-event registration (6:30am -7:30am) at the Pauanui Beach Surf Life Saving Club. We advise competitors to aim for the Friday night race bib pickup if possible.
• Race bib placement and electronic timing chip: The race bib containing the entrant’s race number must be placed low on the front of your singlet or shirt where it is clearly visible. The timing chip is a shoe tag product and will be tied onto your shoe.

• Course cut-off: The course closes at 12:30pm on Saturday, 15 March 2025.
• Prizegiving will be held at 12:30pm at Race HQ (Pauanui Surf Life Saving Club reserve, Pauanui Boulevard). Recognition of our top finishers is something we value and will award at prizegiving. We will recognise our top 3 athletes (male and female) in each race distance. Prize money will be presented to the first-place male and female across each distance. Spot prizes will also be awarded at this time. If your name/ number is drawn for a spot prize, you must be preset to collect this award.
• Aid stations will be provided at the Pauanui Beach Surf Life Saving Club reserve, at the 4.5km mark, 9.5km mark and at the 16.5km mark. You can see aid stations on the course map. We will have water refill stations and electrolytes at the aid stations. We are a cupless event. Pauanui Half Marathon collapsible cups can be purchased on our event registration platform or at registration/race bib pick up.
