Course description
This 21km off-road run or walk captures the very essence of Marlborough: vines for miles, stunning scenery, autumn colours and diverse landscapes.
The course takes you between the rows of Marlborough's vineyards, for a unique chance to get up close and personal with Marlborough's famous Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir grapes. For this, we're eternally grateful to the private land owners who have allowed access through their vineyards and farms - without their permission, this event wouldn't be possible. Please visit the Super Heroes page for a list of these generous people and companies.
As a deserved reward, every finisher (over 18 yrs of age) will receive a complimentary bottle of wine from the highly acclaimed Saint Clair Estate Wines. Stick around after the race and laze the afternoon away with family and friends enjoying the cafe-style food and Saint Clair wines available.
Updates and highlights in 2010
- A change in course direction - making it an even more scenic run (we believe!) - taking in the vines at the start and building towards the stopbank of the Wairau River towards the end of the run.
- 5% of every entry will be donated to Project K Marlborough to help Marlborough youth fulfill their potential.
- Automatic transponder timing, as well as online entry capability.
- The Hybrid section to accommodate participants who want to run and walk the 21km will remain
