F.A.Q
Is it a challenging event?
|
The WUU2K is a very challenging event. I'm not going to sugar coat it in any way at all. Do not enter this run unless you have trained for it sufficiently. As a gauge, most will finish the 43km Marathon in around 6-7 hours, and around 8-9 hours for the Ultra. Train with this in mind.
|
Will I make the cut-off?
|
If you've trained for the event, you'll understand there are a lot of hills to run up, and down. The 62km event cut-off is 12.45pm, so this gives you 6 hours and 15 minutes to run around 34km. It's a tough 34km though. Run the flats and downhills. Walk the ups and you will finish this event.
|
How far is it exactly?
|
The Marathon is around 43km, so slightly over the usual 42km marathon.
The Ultra event is close to 62km |
What's the elevation?
|
Over the Marathon course you will take in around 2km in elevation
The Ultra Marathon course is close to 3km in elevation |
Will I get a medal?
|
Every finisher will receive a custom-made WUU2K medal.
|
What will be at the
|
There will be Tailwind nutrition, Water, Soft Drinks, Vegemite/Pics Peanut butter sandwiches, chips, biscuits, sweets, fruit, and hopefully some home-baked goods.
