16K Trail Run

Start at Wainui Athletics Club grounds and head up Reservoir Rd for about 100m. Take a right onto a grassy area and cross over the footbridge and turn right. Up Whakanui Track (this is the Revenge part) to the top, left onto McKerrow’s Track and run a clockwise 3.5 km loop. Parts of the 3.5km loop are not obvious and I do not recommend exploring this part of the course prior to event day unless you are an experienced tramper, have a good map, a GPS & Cell Phone, have plenty of time, and are prepared to backtrack if necessary. You have been warned. Head back down Whakanui veer right onto Gums Loop. Follow Gums Loop, take a right up Tana Umaga Track and then another right onto the Forest Loop. After Forest Loop follow the Sledge Track around until you see the bridge across the Wainuiomata River. Cross the bridge and head left for about 1.5km back down to Richard Prouse Park, and the Finish.
