Five Peaks Official Training Run #4 – Cleland to Belair (23 km)

Date: Sun, 24 March 2019

The fourth of four official training runs for Five Peaks.

The Five Peaks SA Trail Running Festival on April 7 will have something for everyone with four distances featuring a mix of wide open fire trails, technical single track, native bush and stunning views. 8 km, 12 km, 23 km or 58 km. Click here for more information on the April 7th event and to enter.

This training run is the third section of the 58 km course and the entire 23km course – from Cleland to Belair.

Meet at the Belair country club car park at 6:15am in order to car pool to Cleland for a 7:00 a.m. start. We are relying on runners to self-organise car pooling and there should be plenty of others to pool with. The gate at the top of the road into Cleland will be open from 6:30am.

Your volunteer leader for this run is Claire. This is a free “social run” – for more information on what to expect at a social run. click here.

Mal and Merry, our wonderful volunteers who provided the amazing spread at all our previous training runs, will be waiting for you at Belair with a delicious array of food again. We’ll also have Nick from Roasted On coffee there with his nitro coffee – cold brew infused with nitrogen gas, for you to try before Five Peaks where it will be available at the Norton Summit aid station. And last but not least, Sue from Groovy Gaitors will be there as well with a selection of her products for sale, so check out the options online and bring cash along to take some home on the day.
