WHAREROA FARM - KAPITI

Trail Half Marathon

RUN 17KM
Note
The information on this page is not yet confirmed, and may be based on the previous years' edition.

A couple of short but tough climbs, mostly on open grassy areas, faster running on MTB and horse tracks. Probably our least technical venue, but if you are fit and climb well you will be quick here. Pacing yourself on those early climbs are critical to enjoying the second half.

Close

Course runs anti-clockwise. If you are fit and climb hills well you will be quick on this course. It is probably our least technical venue but be careful on the open field areas. Irregular footing can be concealed by the grass. Start at HQ at run for 1km on gravel road and open field to spread you out. Into a forested area and then slow elevation gain up an eerily quiet valley. Easy open running at this point. Climb Misery Hill, bring your sense of humour. Once at the top look around and take in the view, turn left and come down through open grasslands, watch your ankles if you are running fast.Take a right and connect with an easy MTB climbing track up to the Kapiti MTB Club Downhill Track. Left onto the Trampers Track, do some swearing and waving of fists as you climb back up to Campbill’s Mill Road. Turn left, on the homeward stretch now. Down the Bridal Path and back home via a Bush Track with well-formed trails.
