Upcoming Event & Training Information

This is the eighth Southern Local event. The beautiful Gorringe’s Beach is on the edge of the Mortimer Bay Coastal Reserve in Sandford. Birdlife and wildlife is abundant in this peaceful reserve. The terrain is completely flat. Tricky navigation in coastal dunes and lagoons is interspersed with some fast track running.

Five courses are available – Long, Medium, Shortened Medium, Short, Novice.
The Short and Novice courses will stick to tracks. Long and Medium course runners are likely to get wet feet.
NOTE:...

Race through the scenic Seaport to the Launceston City Centre and into the surrounding suburbs, visiting some of the city centre’s iconic landmarks.
Using a full colour, detailed map, you’ll navigate between controls, in order, to complete your course in the quickest time. But it’s not about speed. Good planning and smart route choices will save time, so be prepared for some thinking!
