Overview

If you're pounding pavement for the Sydney Half Marathon this weekend — or supporting someone who is — swing through the HOKA Pit Stop Experience before heading to the start line. Designed as a performance-focused service station, this personalised encounter is geared to getting every participant and their crew race-ready.

The pop-up begins at the Diagnostic Bay, where runners jog into an on-site hub to log their details and receive an assessment of their stride. Then, it's over to the Performance Refuel zone, where you're welcome to top up from fridges stocked with complimentary snacks and drinks designed to help you power through the race.

Next, step into Performance Upgrade to explore the latest HOKA footwear innovations and technology before arriving at the Spare Parts station. Here, you're invited to fine-tune your race-day kit, complete with fresh laces, a customised race bib and hats with pins, all intended to help you smash your PB, or at least reach the finish line.

Finally, a fully kitted Chill Out space is where runners can cool down in an outdoor seating area before getting back on the road. Here, you'll also find a race podium to capture the perfect post-race shot. Operating throughout the weekend, get down from 7am–1pm on race day — Sunday, May 3 — to explore this elevated hub for runners and spectators alike.
