Training plan for the Waitoa Mount Festival Half Marathon
Saturday, 23 January 2027 in Mount Maunganui, New Zealand. That is 15 weeks away.
When a build would have to start
ALLUNGO plans a block of a length that suits the distance, then works backwards from race day. For this one:
Half — a 14-week build, 4 runs a week
Starts the week of 12 October 2026 — 1 week in hand.
On the day
One distance: Half. Entries, course and timings are mountfestival.kiwi’s. They decide when entries open and close, and whether the race runs at all — ALLUNGO sells nothing here and takes nothing from them.
The date here is the one the organiser published, rechecked every 1 hour against the list. Confirm it on their site before you enter.
