Where Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca - Sunday Marathon starts and finishes
Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca - Sunday Marathon starts at Mount Avoca Winery. 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 Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca - Sunday Marathon Route Breakdown
All courses start at the front gates of Mount Avoca Winery, winding through the vine‑filled corridors of the estate before heading into the Blue Pyrenees State Forest. The 42km Shiraz Marathon tackles rugged single‑track, steep climbs and sweeping ridge views, while the 27km Merlot offers a slightly shorter but equally scenic route. The 10km Sauvignon Blanc and 5km Chardonnay provide fast, rolling terrain through vineyards and gentle forest trails. Families can enjoy the 2.5km Verjuice Kids Run on a safe, flat loop. All routes are well marked, feature occasional aid stations, and culminate at the winery’s cellar door where finishers receive an engraved wine glass.

Training Strategy for Trail Run Wine Weekend Avoca - Sunday Marathon
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 Mount Avoca Winery 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.
