KEY POINTS:
A record-breaking bonus is on offer for both the men and women in next year's Rotorua Marathon if the winner breaks the course record.
As well as winning the first prize of $4000 each, they will win an additional $25,000 each if in the men's section the record of two hours 16 minutes 05 seconds is broken.
For the women, the target is to break 2h 37m 37s.
However, that is with the proviso that the winners of both sections do not have a personal best time lower than the course record at the time of starting in the race.
