Where RunHaven 2026 Presented by Lifestyle Group 5K starts and finishes
RunHaven 2026 Presented by Lifestyle Group 5K starts at Laurieton United Services Club, 2 Seymour St, Laurieton NSW 2443. 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 RunHaven 2026 Presented by Lifestyle Group 5K Route Breakdown
All races start and finish at the Laurieton United Services Club. The Half Marathon follows a two‑lap, mostly flat riverside circuit that winds around the Camden Haven, showcasing the harbour and parkland scenery. The 10km is a single lap of the same route, while the 5km is an out‑and‑back stretch along the waterfront. The course is well‑marked, road‑surface, with gentle turns and plenty of shade, making it ideal for both seasoned runners and beginners seeking a scenic twilight run.

Training Strategy for RunHaven 2026 Presented by Lifestyle Group 5K
4-8 weeks is enough for a 5K, whether it's your first or you're chasing a PB. Short, sharp interval and tempo sessions matter more here than overall mileage.
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 few days, keeping a short, sharp race-pace effort or two to stay sharp. Arrive at Laurieton United Services Club, 2 Seymour St, Laurieton NSW 2443 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.
5K 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.
No on-course fuel is needed at this distance for most runners — water stations are the usual provision.
A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
