The run starts in Honiara and follows the coastline of Iron Bottom Sound to the turn around point of a wartime ship wreck. Few events offer you the opportunity to run through local villages set in coastal rainforest with the backdrop of the Solomon Sea and Savo Island.

The course is very flat however the tropical conditions will challenge most runners. Water and food are provided along the course and it is very important that participants take advantage of the water stations.

Sunscreen and a cap or visor are important things to remember – don't leave home without them!

Water and food stations will be available along the course every kilometre.
