Where Raffertys Coastal Run 22KM starts and finishes
Raffertys Coastal Run 22KM starts at Raffertys Resort, Lake Macquarie, NSW. 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 Raffertys Coastal Run 22KM Route Breakdown
The race begins at Raffertys Resort on the tranquil shores of Lake Macquarie. Runners head out through Murrays Beach before returning to the lakeside for flat sections, then tackle fire trails that climb toward the footbridge and first aid station. The route follows Scenic Drive to Caves Beach, offering sweeping ocean views, before descending onto a rocky platform beside the infamous Shark Hole. After the 36km/22km split at Aid Station 2, the course continues along Catherine Hill Bay Beach, under the historic jetty, and across Moonee Beach. A steep fire‑trail climb tests endurance, with a rewarding view of Snapper Point and Frazer Beach. The final leg retraces the fire trail, crosses the footbridge and finishes back at the resort, completing a varied mix of single‑track, fire trail, sealed path and sand.

Training Strategy for Raffertys Coastal Run 22KM
6-10 weeks is a solid window for a 13.67-mile race. Combine a weekly long run with threshold work so you can hold pace over the full distance.
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.
Ease off mileage in the final week, keeping a couple of short, sharp race-pace efforts to stay fresh. Arrive at Raffertys Resort, Lake Macquarie, NSW 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.
13.67-Mile Nutrition & Fueling Plan
A normal diet is fine. There is no need to carb-load for a race of this length.
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.
Fluid at the on-course stations is usually enough; some runners take a single gel around the hour mark.
A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
