The Ultra Easy 100k - the BIG EASY Mountain Marathon – the 12k river trail run.
All based out of the Albert Town Tavern, Wanaka New Zealand.
The Ultra Easy is a 100km loop, starting at Albert Town Tavern, running over Mt Iron, Roys Peak, Mt Alpha, Little Criffel and joining the marathon course to go over Mt Pisa – over 4000m of climbing and descending. – 3am start. 20hr cut off. Not to be taken lightly!
The Big Easy Marathon is 42.2km starting at the Snow Farm 1500m above the Cardrona Valley. 11am start – nice and relaxed. You run a gentle 9km of ‘up’ to the top of Mt Pisa then 21km of ‘down’ to Luggate before 12km of ‘flattish’ back to Albert Town Tavern.
The 12k river run is the last part of the course – 12pm start at Lake McKay Station woolshed (Luggate) and follows farm tracks under the main road to join up with the Clutha River trail – a beautiful 12ks – and you have all the time in the world! Then lounge on the grass (or in the beer garden) and support the longer distances as they come in!
