Elite Prize - The Top of the Bridge Prime awards

The Top of the Bridge Prime awards recognise the first male and first female runners in the full marathon to cross the top of the Auckland Harbour Bridge. This is approximately 15km from the event start line at Devonport.

The top of the Auckland Harbour Bridge is defined as the official timing mats on the bridge for the purposes of the awards and event officials will also be present at this point to adjudicate.

The two winning elite athletes will each receive a cash prize of $500 each. To be eligible for the prize the runners must complete the full marathon distance.

Spot prizes for all events will be drawn randomly and a list of all winners will be available at the Registration & Expo at the Spot Prize area. Spot prizes must be collected prior to 5:30pm Saturday 29 October. Prizes not collected by that time will be deemed forfeited by the winner. To claim your minor spot prize you must present your valid race number.
