On behalf of the Cromwell & Districts Promotion Group, a BIG thank you to New World Cromwell for joining as Principal Partner for the recently held 2025 Cromwell Half Marathon, 10 km and Teams Relay. Their generous support — alongside our other valued in-kind supporters — helped make the event possible.
Held on Saturday 11th October, the event was a great success, with over 450 entrants — the strongest numbers in 10 years — and it was fantastic to see 100 kids take part. Despite the winds on the day, participants were determined to cross the finish line, making it a truly special family-friendly, active experience.
Special thanks to our committed volunteers, who gave up their own time to help everything run smoothly.
Each year, the Cromwell Half Marathon brings runners, walkers and families together from near and far, to enjoy the spectacular Central Otago scenery. With New World Cromwell’s support, we were able to lift the experience even further — with improved resources, beautiful new finisher medals, heaps of free post-race refuel snacks, and a stronger sense of community.
The event is delivered by Highland Events, whose proven expertise ensures a professionally run and memorable race for participants of all ages and abilities.
Lastly, a heartfelt thank you to the following generous in-kind sponsors:
