One Run To Find Them
Saturday 10 August 2019
We’ve very excited to be ‘bringing’ you the second run in our trilogy and at a brand NEW route on the wonderful Denbies Wine Estate and this time the medal is presented in a ‘precious’ shiny GOLD!
This is a multi-distance event – from 5km to 10k, half to marathon to ultra, you can complete as many, or as few, laps as you like of a 5.3km, 3.28 mile, looped course around the beautiful Denbies Wine Estates within the overall 6 hour time limit.
We welcome all abilities of runner – complete one loop and you’re both a finisher and a winner in our eyes, or keep going and see how far you can get in the full 6 hour time limit and everyone gets the fabulous bespoke finishers’ medal.
Off road trail, through the wine estate with the odd hill thrown in!
