Each 7km loop contains 240m of elevation.
Every finisher will receive a medal, however in order to keep registration costs low and reduce our footprint, there is no additional swag included. We will have a very limited number of Look Out Trail Race hats available for purchase during registration.
NOTE: This is a cup-free/waste-free event - in order to lower the risk of litter on-course, please bring a collapsible cup or water bottle for re-filling at aid stations. Hold on to your nutrition packaging until an aid station - we will sort and recycle all waste.
