Where The Mozi Run 3 KM starts and finishes

The Mozi Run 3 KM starts at Emmanuel College Oval, Carrara, QLD. 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 The Mozi Run 3 KM Route Breakdown

The race kicks off from the playing fields at Emmanuel College on Birmingham Road, Carrara, and follows the Emerald Lakes running circuit. The 1.5km Kids’ Dash winds through the college oval, offering a safe, flat route perfect for little ones and pram pushes. The 3km Mini Mozi Run adds a few gentle bends before looping back, while the 5km Main Mozi Run is an out‑and‑back course that heads onto the Emerald Lakes track and returns the same way, keeping the terrain mostly paved and easy on the legs. Along the route you’ll enjoy scenic views of the lake, open parkland and well‑maintained paths, making it ideal for families, beginners and casual runners.

Training Strategy for The Mozi Run 3 KM

Standard Training Window

6-10 weeks is a solid window for a 1.86-mile race. Combine a weekly long run with threshold work so you can hold pace over the full distance.

Terrain Specificity

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.

The Taper Phase

Ease off mileage in the final week, keeping a couple of short, sharp race-pace efforts to stay fresh. Arrive at Emmanuel College Oval, Carrara, QLD fresh, energized, and primed — not fit, fresh.

Pacing Execution

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.

Fuel & Hydration Prep

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.

1.86-Mile Nutrition & Fueling Plan

2-3 Days Prior

A normal diet is fine. There is no need to carb-load for a race of this length.

Race Morning

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.

On-Course Fueling

No on-course fuel is needed at this distance for most runners — water stations are the usual provision.

Post-Race Recovery

A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
