To minimise the use of the baggage service we encourage all participants to wear old clothes (not garbage bags - which are a trip hazard) and discard them at the start. All discarded clothing will be donated to charity.

Event Day Arrangements
-
There will be a baggage truck at the event start for the Sydney Marathon, Sydney Marathon 21.1KM (closing 25min before race start time), Sydney Marathon 10KM and Sydney Marathon Family Fun Run 3.5KM. However, we would encourage participants in these events to make use of the Sydney Running Show Baggage Drop, if at all possible.
If you chose to drop your bag on race day morning, you will be unable to collect your bag until after 12pm (Sydney Marathon participants will be the only exception to this rule and will be able to retrieve bags earlier), so be sure to drop your bag in advance Thursday-Saturday at the Sydney Running Show to allow for prompt collection.
