The race
The Honest Lawyer Series 5K takes place in the charming setting of Monaco, Nelson, as part of a summer series that encourages community engagement in outdoor activities.
Participants can choose from three distinct courses. The first is an out-and-back route that showcases the scenic beauty of the Monaco Peninsula. The second course follows a “Y” shape near the Nelson airport, offering a unique perspective of the area. The third course, an out-and-back option along the Deviation, serves as a backup and is less frequently utilized.
This event is inclusive, welcoming both runners and walkers of varying abilities. On-the-day registration begins around 5:15 PM in the Courtyard outside The Honest Lawyer Country Pub. Walkers and early runners, typically those taking over 30 minutes, commence at 6 PM, while the main runners start at 6:15 PM.
After the race, participants can gather for a prize-giving ceremony back at the pub, fostering a sense of community and celebration among attendees. For detailed course maps and additional information, participants are encouraged to visit the event’s website or its associated social media pages.
