The Course

This is a self-supported event utilising the abundance of water taps along the River Torrens. You can find where these are using the BYOB (Bring your own bottle App).
To assist there will be one aid station with water, Infinit and lollies at approx. the 25km Mark of the 50km event. As this is a cup free event you will be required to have a water bottle or cup to utilise this aid station. This aid station is also the team change over point.
Event participants are expected to uploaded the course route into their watch or be comfortable following a map as there will be no course markings. For local runners the course follows the Torrens in a logical manner as can be seen in the map below.
