Full Western Sydney 10 Bungarribee Park Half Marathon Route Breakdown
The race starts at the Rooty Hill parkrun launch point near the Bung Shelter and main carpark. Runners follow a large out‑and‑back loop that never takes you more than 1.5 km from the start. The majority of the course is on sealed concrete/bitumen paths, with two short gravel sections and a brief dirt stretch that can turn muddy after rain. Along the way you’ll enjoy open parkland, native bushland edges and occasional views of the Nepean River. The flat terrain and repeatable loops are ideal for pacing and personal bests, while the varied surface adds a touch of challenge.

Training Strategy for Western Sydney 10 Bungarribee Park Half Marathon
10-14 weeks is a solid window for a first half marathon; 8-10 weeks is enough if you're already maintaining a baseline mileage. Build your long run up gradually rather than jumping straight to race 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.
Reduce overall mileage across the final 7-10 days while preserving short race-pace bursts. Arrive at Bungarribee Park, Western Sydney 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.
Half Marathon 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.
