The race
The Honest Lawyer Series 5K event features three distinct course options, each showcasing different aspects of the surrounding area. The first course offers an out and back route along the scenic Monaco Peninsula, providing participants with beautiful views of the coastline. The second course, a “Y” configuration, takes runners near the Nelson airport, while the third option is an out and back course along the Deviation, designated as a backup choice.
This event welcomes participants of all abilities, including both runners and walkers. Registration takes place on-site, starting around 5:15 pm in the Courtyard adjacent to The Honest Lawyer Country Pub. Walkers and early runners begin at 6:00 pm, followed by the main running group at 6:15 pm.
The atmosphere is community-oriented, with a prize-giving ceremony concluding the event back at the pub, fostering a sense of camaraderie among participants. For detailed course maps and additional information, the event’s website and Facebook page provide further resources.
