The trail is technical with a couple of sharp ascents/descents and a few long drags, especially the one to the finish line. The surface is very mixed with: fire-track, forest-track, single-track, mud, puddles, riverbed, rocks and roots with about a km of fire-trail to race to the finish.
Under IMRA rules for competitor's safety, it is mandatory to bring and carry a jacket that is shower and windproof for the entire race. Any competitor seen not carrying or wearing their jacket at any stage in the race will be disqualified. There are no exceptions to this rule!
Please ensure that you have read the new race guidelines for running under COVID 19 restrictions.

Volunteers (Non-Running)
You need to have done 2 non-running volunteer roles in a calendar year to qualify for end of year prize
Volunteers (Running)
Check with race director if they have a need for people volunteering and running. Race directors need a minimum number of people available throughout the race to make the race work so non-running volunteers are preferable. While it can be helpful, volunteering in a volunteer and race capacity does not count towards qualifying for end of year prize
