The C.ex Group Coffs Harbour Running Festival is a community event for people of all ages and abilities and consists of a 21.1 kilometre Half Marathon, a 10-kilometre Fun Run, five-kilometre Fun Run and a three-kilometre Family Fun Run/Walk. Held on a bush trail on the Coffs Creek walkway, the flat, shady course is ideal for runners. The picturesque track hugs the beautiful Coffs Creek and competitors run over floating boardwalks, through swamp forests of mangrove, casuarina and paperbark trees from the centre of town to the coast and back.
