COURSE PROFILE
- Elevation gain: +860m
- Distance: 30.40km
- 99% path, 1% road
- ITRA and UTMB indexed
The SRF30 course follows the same track as the SRF10 course, taking in the eastern and northern lower slopes of Mt Stromlo before heading out to the western side of Stromlo Forest Park and taking in spectacular views stretching far west to the Brindabella Ranges. Runners make their way up the mountain to conquer “The Mother” aka the top of Mt Stromlo and take in a panoramic view of the Canberra region at this selfie-worthy point. The final few kilometres are a descent back down to the event hub and finish line.
SRF30 consists of multiple rises with one major climb towards the end for a total of 860m of vertical gain and is suitable for intermediate runners prepared to be on course for several hours with a cut-off of 6 hours for this event.
Runners can expect the course will be well marshalled and marked to ensure they can run carefree and enjoy the race without worry of navigation.
