Race Map

The course starts at the Romaine Reserve carpark adjacent to the BBQ area. Runners follow the reserves gravel pathway in an anticlockwise direction until they reach the start of the Mount Street link path. Here runners turn right onto the link path and continue for another 400m (There is a temporary detour for 2025 due to bridge works, runners will follow the detour and course markings performing a short 100m out and back along fence line to the turn marker). The course then turns left onto the fence line track, heading back into the reserve for approx. 700m until the Havenview link path. Here runners will do a hard right U turn, through the guard rails and onto the forestry fire track on the opposite side of the fence. The course follows the fire track southwest 1.5km, with runners staying true to the track. Runners will then turn right at the T intersection, then right again at the next T intersection as they approach the truck route. Here runners will complete a 300m out and back section around a turn marker, before continuing along the fire track adjacent to the truck route. Approx 1km down the track the course will perform a large “U” between the truck route and the reserve fence line tracks. Runners then continue another 1km along the truck route track, crossing over the Havenview link track, before following the track left towards the reserve. The course then turns left back onto the reserve gravel pathway, before turning right over the footbridge and finishing where the course started.
