Where Magnetic 10in10 Marathon Event starts and finishes
Magnetic 10in10 Marathon Event starts at Townsville Picnic Bay Surf Lifesaving Club, 80 The Strand, North Ward QLD 4810. We haven't been able to place those on a map accurately enough to show one — a pin in the wrong place is worse than no pin.
These are the start and finish points, not the route. Verus doesn't hold course files for this race, and drawing a line between two pins would be a guess you might end up training on.
Full Magnetic 10in10 Marathon Event Route Breakdown
The marathon course follows a 6‑km loop along The Strand, Townsville’s beachfront promenade, starting beside the basketball court at the Townsville Picnic Bay Surf Lifesaving Club. Runners complete seven laps to total the full marathon distance of 42.195 km, enjoying uninterrupted views of Magnetic Island, the sparkling Coral Sea, and the palm‑lined shoreline. The route is flat, paved and road‑friendly, with water fountains placed at regular intervals and portable toilets near the start/finish area beside the basketball court. Early morning sunrises and gentle sea breezes add to the experience, while local volunteers line the course to provide encouragement and aid. The looped design makes logistics simple, allowing participants to set up a base camp and recover between laps.

Training Strategy for Magnetic 10in10 Marathon Event
16-20 weeks is the target window for first-time marathoners; 12-16 weeks is solid if you're already maintaining a baseline mileage. Arrive with your longest run behind you in training, not on race day itself.
This is a largely flat course, so most of your long runs can mirror that — flat and steady, building time on feet rather than hill strength.
Reduce overall mileage across the final 2-3 weeks while preserving short race-pace bursts. Arrive at Townsville Picnic Bay Surf Lifesaving Club, 80 The Strand, North Ward QLD 4810 fresh, energized, and primed — not fit, fresh.
Lock in your target pace using the interactive splits calculator below — no official pacers are confirmed for this event, so a pace band on your watch is the more reliable option.
Test your race-day fuel and hydration plan on your long training runs, not for the first time on race day — check the Race Day Checklist below for what's actually on this course.
Marathon Nutrition & Fueling Plan
A deliberate increase in carbohydrate over the two to three days before the race is the well-established approach at marathon distance.
Eat a carbohydrate-focused breakfast two to three hours before the start, and stick to something you've already tested in training rather than trying anything new.
Most runners take on carbohydrate every 30 to 45 minutes from about an hour in, alongside fluid at the on-course stations.
A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
