About the race
BMF UTA Stair Training Run offers guided trail training in the Blue Mountains from Violet Street, opposite Scenic World, Katoomba. The session is aligned with Streek.Run 16 week race plans and covers the UTA courses to provide stair-specific training and course familiarisation. The run will include the UTA11 course as a minimum and may use additional UTA trails to extend the distance up to around 25 km.
The organisers hold a National Parks and Wildlife Service ECO PASS licence and insurance for training on the National Park. Pace groups are organised so participants can run with others at a similar speed; named groups include TURTLES, a mid paced group, and SPEEDY HARES. A walker group and walk trainer may be available. Trainers will discuss race preparation topics such as gear, nutrition, pacing, aid stations, and race strategy.
Participants are asked to carry the UTA22 mandatory race gear and bring sufficient fuel and hydration for the planned duration. Minimum age for this training run is 12 years. An information sheet with meeting points, course map, and instructions will be provided to participants before the training day. Entry fees are listed as A$60 for ages 17 and over and A$50 for ages 16 and under. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
