Can anyone tell me what day this is to be held this year?

I have searched the calendars and web but can't find the actual date for this year and I am keen to see if I can fit in the half if it doesn't clash with Noosa.

I ran the Marathon last year. Just some general info. Friday night is the carbo loading night "all you can eat" great food and time enough to rest up prior to the race on Sunday. Scenery is fantastic, but beware the conditions, the Marathon starts of in the dark and cold, warms up and gets hot, after all you will be running in a desert. The half marathon starts at the the Marathon half way mark, so they take you out by bus. Long gradual hilly climb on the way back. Presentaion lunch is catered and not to be missed.
