Update : 17-03-20
Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19’s) impact on communities across NSW and Australia is evolving rapidly. The Office of Sport is monitoring advice from NSW Health and the Department of Health in relation to physical activity.
On Sunday 15 March, NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard made an Order under Section 7 of the Public Health Act 2010 to force the immediate cancellation of major events with more than 500 people.
As our event date currently falls outside the existing order, we are monitoring the situation closely to give the Western Sydney Marathon every opportunity to go ahead as scheduled. We will provide further updates as the situation develops, and direct communication to all of our participants if the Order is updated and/or extended.
If the event is unable to proceed and is cancelled, participants are entitled to a refund of the race entry fee. Booking fee, card surcharges and additional item purchases are unable to be refunded.
If you are concerned about the Coronavirus, please call the hotline on 1800 675 398
