MARATHON
Making the commitment to enter and prepare for any running race, whether it is a full marathon, half, 10km
or 5km event gives us the opportunity to extend ourselves beyond our everyday physical limits and achieve
something great.
We get few opportunities in our lives to really push ourselves, but today is one of those experiences, where we
challenge ourselves physically, mentally and emotionally.
A running event or race is not a sport that most of us enter to win. It’s an experience we commit to so we can
push ourselves beyond our normal boundaries - no matter whether this is your first or tenth event, that challenge
is the same.
Whatever your personal reasons for entering the 2011 adidas Auckland Marathon, or whatever your race is, I
congratulate you on your commitment and wish you the very best for the day.

Timing Chips: All participants will be issued with an IPICO timing chip when you pick up your Race Number at

(Chip Check) available at race registration to check the timing chip is working and confirm that
critical database details are correct. On Race Day, the timing chip must be tied to your shoe
laces before you start and be worn on your shoe throughout the race and over the finish line. There
will be timing mats at the start line and at the finish line so that when you finish, the race timing
software will calculate your net time for your event. Please ensure you run OVER all timing mats
and not alongside them. Note: When you finish the race you must remove the timing chip from
your shoe and place it in the collection bags at the end of the finish chute. It is your responsibility
to return the timing chip via the collection bags in the finish chute before leaving the finish area.
All non-returned timing chips will be charged to you at $25.00 incl GST each. If you do not finish
the event, please ensure you return the timing chip to the Timing Chip Collection officials at the end
of the finish chute or mail it back to us at adidas Auckland Marathon, M129 Private Bag 300987,
Albany, Auckland.
Walkers: There is no competiton or prize category for walkers and therefore walkers are not scrutinized in any
of the adidas Auckland Marathon events. Walkers are allocated different bib colours and numbering
systems solely for starting purposes only. For safety reasons a separate start area has been established
for walkers behind the runners and this will be accessible to only those with the correct coloured race
number. Please utilise the separate walkers start area.
Wheelchairs, Cycles, Roller Blades, Prams/Buggies, Skate-Boards, Walking sticks

and logistical concerns on the course, all forms of wheeled conveyance including but not limited
to wheelchairs, cycles, roller blades, prams/buggies, skate-boards etc are not permitted to enter or

prior to 5:30pm Saturday 29 October. Prizes not collected by that time will be deemed forfeited by
the winner. To claim your minor spot prize you must present your valid race number at registration.
Getting to the Start: Due to traffic congestion on the North Shore from participants accessing the start line in Devonport,
we strongly recommend that you consider utilising the chartered pre-race services of the Ferry or
Bus to get to the Marathon and Half Marathon start. Should you choose to use your own vehicle
to get to the start, please allow plenty of time, and remember there is minimal public parking for
participants in Devonport.
FERRY TRANSPORT TO THE START
• Due to the pre-race ferry sailings being a chartered service and the need to ensure boarding is
as efficient as possible, a different ticket system (wristband) is used for these sailings.
• Because of this and the pressure to process 7,000 people onto the ferries in a limited time NO
OTHER FULLERS ISSUED TICKETS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR THESE SAILINGS. Please purchase your
unique charter ticket (wristband) when entering the event or from Registration if not sold out prior.
• Tickets are $7.00 each and limited to 7,000 passengers travelling from Auckland City or
Birkenhead/Bayswater across to Devonport and will be sold on a first come first served basis.
• Wristband tickets are only valid for the event day pre-race sailings. You CANNOT use
your wristband to return to Devonport after the event. You will need to purchase a standard
Fullers ticket for this purpose.
• Supporters tickets (there and back) are also available for purchase online or by paper entry as
well (see below) for $14.00 each.
• Ferry and Bus tickets purchased are non-refundable so please choose carefully.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT FERRY SAILINGS: Last year saw a large number of Half Marathon
participants arrive to catch ferries from 6am and after which resulted in the earlier ferries being
empty and all ferry sailings after that not being able to cater for the numbers waiting. All
Marathon participants please ensure you arrive in time to catch the 4.30am ferry sailing,
or no later than 5.10am sailings for your best chance to make the start line on time.
There are no guarantees that you will arrive in time for the start, particularly if you catch
later ferries.
Supporters Return Ferry Tickets:
Participants can purchase Supporters Tickets for $14.00 each when completing their online/paper
entry form. The supporter receives a wrist band to take them on the pre-race sailing from Auckland
City or Birkenhead/Bayswater to Devonport, and a standard ticket for each supporter to return back
to Auckland City after the start. The return ferry will leave on a 7.00am (sharp) chartered sailing
after the start back to Auckland City.

Auckland Tourism, Events and Economic Development is proud to sponsor the adidas
Auckland Marathon, an iconic Auckland event. As Auckland’s and New Zealand’s premier
road race, the event brings significant economic benefit and international profile to the
city. Every year thousands of local and international competitors get to cross the
Auckland Harbour Bridge and take in a spectacular view of Auckland.
CONTINGENCY PLAN - Bridge Closure
In the event that the Auckland Harbour Bridge is closed for the running of the adidas Auckland Marathon or Half
Marathon or some other unforeseen event or matter requires a change to the course or event, or the cancellation
or cessation (i.e. stopping) of the event, the Race Organising Committee will adopt the following procedures to
provide an alternative course, where possible, for the event, or, alternatively upon cancellation or cessation, assist
participants to be returned to Victoria Park.
The trigger for implementing one of the two contingency plans will be:
1. The Race Director being advised by the relevant authorities that the weather conditions or some other factor
or matter makes it unsafe for runners to cross the Harbour Bridge. This decision will be made around 4:00am
on Event Day. In the event of this scenario then the Contingency course will be implemented
2. Events or circumstances that lead to the closure of the bridge to participants after 5:00am on Event Day or
some other event or matter that closes all or part of the course. In the event of this scenario it will necessitate
the cancellation or cessation of the marathon and half marathon events
Contingency Plan 1: Bridge Closure before 5.00am - alternative course
1. Fuller’s Ferries notified that they are not to transport participants from Auckland to Devonport
2. Participants waiting at the ferries to be advised to go to Victoria Park
3. Ritchies Buses will be advised to transport all runners to Victoria Park
4. Participants waiting at the start and arriving at the start to be advised to go to Victoria Park
5. Radio stations notified to broadcast prepared announcement regarding the move to the contingency course.
Stations to tune in to are:
• More FM - 91.8FM • The Edge - 94.2FM
• The Breeze - 93.4FM • Solid Gold - 93.8FM
• Radio Live - 100.6FM • Kiwi - 102.2FM
• NewsTalkZB - 89.4FM
6. An ‘All Participants’ briefing to be held at Victoria Park at 6.00am and again at 6.30am
7. At 6.30am the Course Director will confirm with Traffic Management and Police that the contingency course is
fully implemented
8. The Race Director will, on confirmation that the course is ready, confirm start times for the Marathon, Half
Marathon, Quarter Marathon, and 5km Run & Walk events
THE CONTINGENCY COURSE
The contingency course will, more or less, follow the planned second half of the Marathon course with the exception
of the following changes:
• The Start for all events will be on Gaunt Street between Halsey and Beaumont Streets.
• The Start will be broken into 3 waves, the Quarter Marathon event, the 5km Run & Walk event and all other
events. The 5km Run & Walk event start will be as originally scheduled (9.45am). The first wave will start no later
than 7.00am and be for all half and full marathon participants. The Quarter Marathon event will start
approximately 15min later.
• The Marathon event will follow the second half of the original Marathon course out to the St Heliers turn around
and return to a turn point on Customs St West then head back out to St Heliers before returning to the finish on
Fanshawe Street.
• The Half Marathon event will follow the Marathon course out to the St Heliers turn around and return to the
finish on Fanshawe Street.
• There is no change to the Quarter Marathon event.
• The 5km Run & Walk event will also follow the water front course to a turn at around Tinley Street.
Note: The fact that all events are on the same course will require marshals to ensure that the slower participants
do not unreasonably impede the faster runners that will invariably be coming through. Slower participants should
obey marshals instructions at all times.
Contingency Plan 2: Notice of Bridge Closure or other event after 5.00am - Partial Cancellation of event
1. Notify Fuller’s ferries:
• To Stop further sailing (if early enough) or;
• That ferries may be required to transport participants from Devonport to Auckland or, possibly, Fisherman’s
Wharf to Auckland

3. Ritchies buses will be advised to transport all runners to Victoria Park
4. Participants waiting at the start and to be advised to go to Victoria Park
5. Notify radio stations to broadcast prepared announcement regarding the move to the contingency course. The
stations to tune in to are:
• More FM - 91.8FM
• The Breeze - 93.4FM
• Radio Live - 100.6FM
• The Edge - 94.2FM
• Solid Gold - 93.8FM
• Kiwi - 102.2FM
• NewsTalkZB - 89.4FM
