Coatesville Kids' Classic |
The Coatesville Kids' Classic is a 2k run or walk starting outside the Settlers' Hall and heading out-and-back along the near-flat terrain of Mahoenui Valley Road.
The route will be well-marshalled, but the road will not be closed on the day. Kids should stick to the right-hand side of the road and watch out for traffic.
And when the kids come home, the Coatesville Classic field will be there to cheer them in.
Keep your school running
The Coatesville Classic wants to see kids up and running, so we invite
primary schools to nominate themselves for the Primary Schools'
Challenge.
Once a school alerts us via the contact form, kids will be able to opt
in to their school team when they enter the race. And for every team
entry, their school will receive $5 to help them keep on running, too. We'll announce the total funding received by each school on the day, so make sure your school is top of the list!
The minimum age for entry to the Kids' Classic is five years and the maximum age is 12.

ENTERING ON RACE DAY? LATE FEES WAIVED!
The
rush to enter in the last couple of days at our Shoe Science
registration table has convinced us to waive our race-day late fees -
so come on down, join the crowd and enter on race-day morning.
If that's the plan, get there early
- the race won't wait and you don't want to miss your start gun.
Registration opens at 7am in the Settlers' Hall on Coatesville Reserve
at the corner of Mahoenui Valley Road and Coatesville-Riverhead Highway.
Please note that there is no eftpos facility at race day registration. You can pay by cash, cheque or credit card.
PICKING UP YOUR RACE PACK
You
can pick up your race pack from 7am on race-day morning. Get there
early to be sure you are ready for your race start - coffee will be
available from the Coffee Guys for those of you who need a little extra
to get them going.
PARKING
Off-road parking will be available to entrants from 6.45am on the
reserve behind Coatesville pony club. The entrance is on Glenmore Road
and will be signposted from Coatesville-Riverhead Highway.
If you are approaching Coatesville along Coatesville-Riverhead Highway
after turning off State Highway 17 (coming from Auckland, Albany, Dairy
Flat), you turn left into Glenmore Road, just after Fernilea Cafe. The
gate is on the left and will be signposted 'Parking'.
If you are coming from Kumeu along Coatesville-Riverhead Highway,
Glenmore Road is on your right just opposite the Coatesville dairy.
Turn right into Glenmore and the gate is on your left, signposted
'Parking'.
Please note: runners and walkers will be coming down Glenmore Road towards Coatesville past the gate used for the car park. If you are entering or leaving the car park between 9am and 11.30am please take extreme care and obey the marshal at the gate.
Please also observe the 'No Parking' signs! They are there for everyone's safety, particularly that of the athletes out on the course.
