Hi !
run with kunanyi Trail Series in February!
Are you running one of our kMR events in late March and keen to get some experience running parts of the course before then? And even better, get that experience under timed event conditions? if so, we've got the perfect training experience for you!
Our sister event, the kunanyi Trail Series, is (as the name suggests!) a series of trail runs on kunanyi - with a different event for each season of the year!
Plus there is a BBQ at the finish line (the event hub is at Fern Tree Park).
The Summer event is on Sunday February 19, with two different distances:
Potato Hopper | 21km | 600m elevation
You'll start running through big manferns and beside historic water supply stonework to Silver Falls and then up to The Springs. There’s more historic stonework on the first part of Milles Track which then turns into technical, rocky terrain. You’ll pass the Disappearing Tarn (not that you’ll see it!) and run through the Potatofields – the dolerite boulder field! This is some technical running at its best! Then it's on to the Wellington Falls Track down to the Pipeline track: it’s beautiful, flowing downhill single track – you can really fly! The second half of this course is the super runnable Pipeline Track that will bring you back to Fern Tree Park and the waiting BBQ!
Snake Plains | 13km | 420m elevation
Using the same first part of the Potato Hopper course, runners head almost all the way to the Disappearing Tarn, before turning down the unique Snake Plains Track. This is more like a classic Tassie bushwalking track in parts – eroded, boggy and scratchy! But it gives great views of Bruny and even all the way down to South Cape on a good day.
We hope to see you at Fern Tree on Sunday February 19!
