Sophie Curnow - Marathoner

I will never stop loving this event. The streets are lined with the Gold Coast community all shouting your name and I'm yet to experience a less than perfect blue sky marathon day.

Pat Carroll - Marathon legend

What I truly love about the Gold Coast Airport Marathon is that everybody has the opportunity to embrace a challenge in one of Australia’s premier holiday destinations.

Sam Hughes - 2000 marathon winner

The familiar faces, the friendships formed, the struggles and the triumphs as everyone challenges themselves to not only finish but to commit to the training is what makes this event so special.

Reg Hogan - Pace runner

I have been most lucky in enjoying the company and help of so many people in the running community, particularly those 23 years competing in the Gold Coast Airport Marathon.

Benita Willis - Marathon legend

The marathon is a flat and fast course in one of the most amazing cities in the world. Seems like a no-brainer not to have a run!

Brad Beer - Physiotherapist

I ran my first Gold Coast Airport Marathon in 2008 and I was hooked. You can't beat this event for the good times runners have!

Joan Darlington - Volunteer & runner

I have had a wonderful association with the Gold Coast Airport Marathon. I've made many lifetime friends both in running and volunteering and I recommend it to any anyone for a very rewarding experience.
