Adelaide Marathon Festival 2025
 
 

Legends and Warriors

A feature of the Adelaide Marathon Festival has been the celebration of those runners who have complete many of the Marathons. These are called Warriors and Legends. The records of their achievements are closely monitored by the SARRC historian Ian Hill. Questions on records should be address to him.

Congratulations to David Kuhne and Kelvin Jeanes for reaching their 20th Adelaide Marathon finish in 2023.

For the Adelaide Marathon Festival, anyone completing 20 (instead of 25) finishes will now be awarded the Legend Status. This brings the Adelaide Marathon Festival in line with all other major marathons around Australia and indeed, around the world. This change will be effective from the Prepd Adelaide Marathon Festival 2022 onwards, and this added another 10 runners to the Adelaide Marathon Legends status.
