Also available, over 40 pairs of Salomon trail running shoes to wear test during the event (no pre-bookings). Chris from The Running Company and Damian from Salomon/Suunto will be on hand to show off the gear, help out with shoe fittings, and to answer any questions about shoes, watches and hydration packs.

14 km course: Lorikeet Loop Walk heading eastwards – Adventure Loop Trail – Lorikeet Loop Walk.
All the signs use black lettering on a coloured background: orange for Lorkeet Loop, dark green for Microcarpa Loop and yellow for Adventure Loop.

For those who do not pick up their bib and for registrations after Monday 25 May, you can pick your bib up from us on the morning of the event. We recommend arriving 40 minutes to 1 hour prior to the event start time in order to allow plenty of time for entrants to pick up their bib.
Parking
Numbers are much higher than anticipated; so if you arrive much after 8.15 you might find the Belair Park Country Club car park is full. In that case, you can park in the side streets opposite the entrance, in Pine Lodge Drive or Californian Crescent – make sure you allow enough time to do this. There is also limited free parking inside the main entrance to Belair National Park, on the left of the entrance drive. Entry to the park ($12) will also open up a range of additional parking opportunities.
