Shakespear Trail Run - Auckland #1

At the tip of the Whangaparaoa Peninsula lies the stunning Shakespear Regional Park. Shakespear is the ideal entry-level course – so bring your family and friends with 100% confidence that they will love every minute!

Shakespear's got it all - farmland, friendly animals, well-groomed single track, wider open trails, a waterfall, one or two decent hills, and stunning views! It is also home to NZ's most-visited wildlife sanctuary.

The Auckland XTERRA Series is a series of 6 trail running/walking events within an hour of the Auckland CBD. This series is for anyone who likes to keep fit and be held accountable over the winter months and is all about getting you onto the best trails. You can choose to come along to 1 event, 6 events or any number in between – whatever works for you!

Each Auckland XTERRA Series event offers four distance options:

• Short (5 - 8km) Run or Walk

• Mid (10 - 14km) Run or Walk

• Long (16 - 20km) Run Only

• Super Long (20km+) Run Only

There's always some challenging but achievable terrain to tame while you're out there, and there will ALWAYS be a cold Speight’s and a hot sausage for you when you get to the finish!
