Welcome to the WUU-2K!
ka tangi te titi
ka tangi te kaka
ka tangi hoki ahau
Tihei mauri ora!
E nga hau e wha, e nga iwi e tau mai nei, haere mai, nau mai,
whakatau mai ki te WUU2K 2022!
Kia ora koutou katoa, and welcome to the WUU2K 2022,
thank you for your interest in the 2022 event.
The WUU2K (pronounced 'Woo-Too-Kay') or 'Wellington Urban Ultra 2K', is a trail-running endurance event around the hills that surround the capital city of New Zealand. Included in the event is a 21km trail half, 43km marathon, as well as a 62km Ultra-Marathon.
Oh, and the '2k' stands for the elevation over the 43km race, which is closer to 3k for the 62km.
The race is run in Mid-Winter, and for 2022 will hopefully see over 1000 runners take on the tough course around the Capital. There is a mix of terrain including single-track, mountain-bike trails, rocky roads, and of course - many, many hills. This is a challenging course. Please only enter if you are up for the challenge! Read the race blogs for an idea of what to expect.
The 62km event is part of qualifying for the UTMB, and all finishers will receive 3 points towards their total. The 62km course is also listed on the ITRA, and finishers receive 3 points towards this also. You can also DL the course GPX from this link.
