Event Overview
The Last Legend is a trail running event held at Woodlands Park in Greenvale, located in Melbourne's north-west. The course is situated on the home grounds of Living Legends, a site dedicated to retired champion racehorses. Participants are encouraged to wear festive red and white running gear to coincide with the Christmas season.
Course and Format
The event features a 2.5 km loop. The format is based on a diminishing time schedule where runners must complete the loop within a specific timeframe and be ready to start again for the next lap. Participants can choose to enter for a specific distance or take part in the unlimited lap challenge. The "Last Legend" prize is awarded to the final runner remaining in the unlimited lap category.
Distances
Athletes can select from several distance challenges:
- 5 km
- 10 km
- 25 km
- 42 km
- Unlimited laps (All the Way)
