The Trail Running Series has opened entries for this year’s Victorian season, marking its 15th year with an array of options and features designed for trail running enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

Since its inception in 2011, the Trail Running Series has introduced the sport to the masses and evolved into one of the country’s leading trail running events.<\/p>\n

Event organisers Rapid Ascent are inviting all runners to immerse themselves in the beauty of the trails in Anglesea, Plenty Gorge and Silvan this winter.<\/p>\n

“We are committed to staying engaged, evolving with the times, and delivering off-road races that runners crave,” Rapid Ascent event director Sam Maffett said.<\/p>\n

“Seeing participants come together, challenge themselves, and connect with nature is incredibly rewarding.<\/p>\n

“What sets the Trail Running Series apart is its longevity.<\/p>\n

“As we embark on our 15th year, it’s the unwavering support of our competitors, supporters, and followers that continually fuels our passion.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Highlights of the 2024 Series include the selection of three wilderness locations.<\/p>\n

Each event will feature short, medium, and long course options, catering to runners of all levels, including the most ardent enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

A handicap format will again be implemented at Race 3 in Silvan, where participants will start at staggered times based on their pace, ensuring that everyone crosses the finish line together.<\/p>\n

“We’re flipping the script at Silvan again,” Mr Maffett said.<\/p>\n

“Rather than the standard races where runners start together and finish dispersed, we’re fostering a sense of togetherness with all runners descending on the finish line in unison, symbolising the camaraderie that defines our Series.”<\/p>\n

The action begins with Race 1 at Plenty Gorge, June 2; followed by Race 2 in Anglesea on July 7, which includes the Friendly 4km; and finishes with Race 3, the handicap format, and the Series<\/p>\n

Finale on August 4, at Silvan in the Dandenong Ranges.<\/p>\n

Competitors have the option to enter all three races for a range of Series benefits including discounts and freebies, or choose the ones that suit them.<\/p>\n
