The race
This relay event takes participants along the scenic West Coast Wilderness Trail, providing a unique opportunity to experience the natural beauty of the area. The course begins outside the historic Kumara Theatre Royal Hotel, setting a quaint and inviting atmosphere for participants.
Runners will traverse through diverse landscapes, culminating at the Blaketown Rugby Clubrooms near the Grey River, which offers a picturesque finish.
The relay is divided into four segments, allowing teams to select either a two-person format, where each member tackles two alternating legs, or a four-person format, with each teammate covering one leg. This structure promotes camaraderie and shared achievement, catering to both runners and walkers alike.
Community involvement is notable, with local supporters often turning out to cheer on participants, adding to the overall atmosphere. The event emphasizes a spirit of inclusivity and encourages connection among runners of various skill levels.
