Social

Let’s run, eat and celebrate!

It’s safe to say 2020 has not been the year anyone planned, but thankfully we’ve managed to have some fun on the trails nonetheless. We’re keen to celebrate the year that was with our community on Sunday 15 November at Belair National Park.

We have booked the Karka Pavilion and picnic ground for the day and we have covered entry to Belair National Park (just say you’re with TRSA).

Social runs

We have decided to combine this event with the first Five Peaks training runs so we’ll have three social run options leaving from Karka Pavilion at 8am:

• Five Peaks 8km course
• Five Peaks 12km course

Or for a trip down memory lane,

• The 21km TRSA V4 Series Belair long course

See below to download the GPX file for the course you’d like to run as they won’t be marked on the day.

Eating

You’re very welcome to join us just for the post-run catch-up from 11am and we encourage you to bring picnic chairs, rugs, drinks, games, children, and dogs as we’ve got plenty of space to spread out and relax. 

We have also arranged a fantastic catered lunch supplied by Anthony who is bringing his South African inspired food truck, Afri-disiac. Lunch will be from midday and the following three options are available at a subsidised cost of $10 per meal. All meals must be pre-ordered at the Registration link above by 5pm on Wednesday 11 November:

• Chakalaka Fried Chicken Burger – Crumbed Spicy Chicken Patty, slaw, chakalaka relish, cheese with potato wedges.
• North African Tasting Plate (Vegan) – Assorted dips, flat bread, falafel, sambuus (Somali samosa) and couscous salad.
• Boerewors Beef Burger – South African sausage spiced patty, slaw, caramelised onion relish, cheese with potato wedges.

It is very important that you register and pay by this date so that Anthony can plan accordingly. Even if you’re not planning to eat, please register (at no cost) via the same link so we can get an idea of numbers.

Celebrating the 2020 TRSA year

We’re planning a celebration of the TRSA V4 Series, Vert Challenge, Five Peaks virtual event, the events we’ve managed to hold, and to thank our wonderful volunteers from 1:30pm. 

We look forward to celebrating another fantastic year for Trail Running SA and our community.

Date: Sat, 31 October 2020

After rave reviews in 2019, we’re planning another introduction to hill training session with local La Sportiva athlete and coach Mick Keyte. Mick will cover tips and tricks for both climbing and descending in a 2 hour session on the trails in Cleland Conservation Park. He’ll also provide some pointers for using poles on the trails so if you have a set, or can borrow some, please bring them along.

Numbers will be capped at 20 for each session (7am and 9am) on Saturday 31 October so please register your interest by completing this form. First in, first served and we will email you to confirm your place in one of the sessions. We will provide updates via Facebook when the sessions are full. The meeting place is at the bottom of the Chambers Gully walking track here.

Mick will have a few La Sportiva and Infinit Nutrition goodies to give away on the day.

In keeping with COVID-safe guidelines, we ask that anyone who:

• is not feeling well on the day of the event, in particular has a fever of >37.99; or
• has had any signs or symptoms of Covid-19 in the 14 days before the event;
• has had contact with anyone who is sick (symptomatic) in the 14 days before the event;
• has been tested for Covid-19 and are awaiting results of the test;
• has traveled within the past 14 days to any international location or any interstate location to which the SA boarders are closed.

Please stay home.
