Prizes

All finishers receive a medal (yes, shiny and well-earned!). Make sure to pop your school name in during registration—because here's where it gets spicy:

👉 The school with the most entries will score 10 FREE entries for the 2026 Coastal Five Active Kids events (so round up your mates and rally that crew!).

🎉 Plus, 3 lucky kids will each win a $100 sports equipment voucher—that's a whole lotta gear for future running legends.

✨ Bonus! All entries before midnight 9th September receive a Coastal Five Active Kids sports t-shirt. One shirt per child (not per entry), so get in quick and look sharp on race day!
