Looking for some motivation to get up and moving early on a Sunday? Or an excuse for sweet treats at breakfast time? This is the run for you! This is a social trail run which will start and finish at Abbotsford convent (Home of the best Bakery in Naarm and some interesting history). We will be running about 15kms through Studley Park and Yarra Bend Park and finishing at the convent for a pastry/pie and a chat.  Please make your own way to the meeting point and be there at 7:50am, to start running at 8am. If you are late, we will have to leave without you.


Some running experience is required, so if you are comfortable running 12km, you are welcome to come along! No set pace, so we'll just be running at the pace that allows everyone to have a good time + a good chat.

There is water fairly regularly along the route so you can carry a bottle or go without.  Please eat something beforehand. This run is right on the cusp of when you'd start needing to refuel so if you usually bring food/gels on runs over 1 hour and 30 minutes I'd recommend bringing something to eat (I'll bring some lollies to go around).

Some of the trail is technical with exposed rocks, roots and fallen trees. Stable footwear is recommended. Some sections are on shared paths, so be aware of bikes and give way to walkers! I will be carrying a first aid kit and snake bandages.

I will put up a map if you'd like to download it on your watch. Please email if you have any questions or intend to only come for part of the run.

Note: no pre-trip meeting, I have listed a meeting time as Tuesday the 24th to go along with the intro to trail running night at the clubrooms, feel free to come along if you want to chat about this run or trail running. Otherwise please email if you have any questions! You must be on the committed list to come along. I will send a reminder email two days before the run. If you realise you can't make it, please remove yourself from the committed list so someone else can come along.

Looking forward to seeing you out there!
