Join Toby from Form Physiotherapy for an introduction to downhill running on trails for TRSA members. The session will follow on from Cleland parkrun and will be based on the Long Ridge trail and is free of charge.

Cleland’s Long Ridge is a neat trail to hone your downhill running performance. We will help you craft the ability to let go and fly downhill. It requires particular muscular strength, but also a technique and head space to match. This session will focus on the technical skills and mindset to be efficient and faster downhills. Come and warm up with the Cleland Park Run and stick around for the downhill running masterclass. This is an introductory session and is suitable for all runners. Bring your running gear, water and a hat/sunnies. See you there.

As a proud supporter of Cleland parkun, we’ve arranged to takeover for a week and let Jon and Sirelle go for a run while we take care of volunteering. We’d love to get another big turnout to run on the day and if you’d like to volunteer, email volunteering@trailrunningsa.com to let us know.

Cleland parkun on this day will be followed immediately by a TRSA introductory downhill running session with Toby from Form Physiotherapy along Long Ridge. Head to that event on our calendar to find out how to secure your spot.

 

About

Date: 08 October, 2017

For those wanting to get familiar with the Kuitpo courses before the big event, or those who just can’t wait until November to check out the courses!  You have a choice of running the 10km, 16km or 26km courses for this social run.  For those opting for 16km or 26km, this will give you a chance to run through the beautiful single tracks in Kyeema Conservation Park.  Don’t worry there’s plenty of fun for those doing the 10km too.

Directions (the easy way): Click here

Don’t just type “Kuitpo Forest” into google maps or your gps app as it may take you to a completely different part of the park!

The meeting point is at the junction of Christmas Hill Rd and Brookman Rd, opposite Kuitpo Hall (a renovated stone building) and Tynan Rd.  If you’re coming from the Adelaide-Meadows Rd it’s 8 kms from the junction with Brookman Rd (signposted Willunga). If you’re coming from the Adelaide-Mt Compass Rd, it’s 13 kms from the junction of Brookman Rd with that (signposted Meadows).

Stop off in one of the towns beforehand to use the toilets as there are no toilets in Kuitpo (only trees and a rather smelly long drop at the neighbouring campground).

Coffee/brunch afterwards at the Meadows Bakery.

Galileo recommended: There will be no course marking and you’ll need to download the Galileo mapping app for your phone and the course you will be following.

• Download galileo for iPhone
• Download galileo for android

If you are having trouble, arrive approximately 20 minutes early and Murray will show you how to set it up. If you know how to load a GPX file into the app please do that before coming.

• Download GPX file

If you would prefer not to use galileo, a printed map is also available by clicking the print map (PDF) button next to the map below.
