2010 online entries opened 7pm Monday 9 August, and closed 17 August. Don’t despair though; weekend events have a high drop-out rate and last year we managed to place everyone on the waitlist. Please email info@runtrails.org to join the waitlist if you miss online entry (confirmed entries and waitlist to 22 August is posted at the bottom of this page).

We have returned to the traditional permit limit of 50 after the increase to 75 in our 40th anniversary year. Attitudes to field limits are changing in the wake of Parks Service’s positive evaluation of last year’s event, but for this year 50 is our lot.

Important: 
1. This is a two-day event, and we prefer entrants to run both days. Our planning is for runners covering the Border Track over on Saturday, back on Sunday - so if you run one day only, you need to organise your own transfers. 
2. Accommodation is limited, so if you’re not joining us in the bunkhouse (payable with your online entry), book your lodge/safari tent/camping accomodation as soon as your entry is accepted.

We’re still finalising catering and costs, and need to get another TRAQ newsletter out so everyone gets a fair chance at entering before we open up online entries. This event will sell out, as we are back to a permit limit of 50 this year - but we also have quite a few drop out because its a weekend event, so don’t panic if you only make it to the waiting list at first.

Running Wild Trail Association has been formed to fill a perceived void in organised, quality trail running experiences for athletes in NSW. Following our ongoing discussions on how great it is to participate in events like these at some highly regarded races such as Six Foot Track, Woodford to Glenbrook and Mt Wilson to Bilpin, and events that draw on the wilderness experience, we decided to create a not for profit organisation to seek out and provide more of these trail experiences for runners in NSW.

The Lake Manchester trail run came into its own this year, with a big increase to 194 entries made up of 115 for the 21km course to the head of the lake and 79 for the 7km fun run. Word has finally got around the running scene about Brisbane’s beautiful but least-known lake. First up was the 7km fun run with Tom Hogbin home smartly in 30.43 just ahead of Keny Arcangeli in 31.06 and Mitchell Fullelove in 32.29. First female Sarah Glover followed shortly after for a clear win 33.36, followed by Bree Russell (35.09) and Vanessa Dellow (38.13). Download full results here

This run started in 2009 and spans the World Heritage-listed Gibraltar Range and Washpool national parks. A new 54km ultra course around the whole trail was added for 2010 to supplement last year’s medium course (now 25km) and short course (9km).
