After the race

After your race, we recommend:

  • Hang out in the Social Central zone with your new and old trail running buddies!
  • Buying a coffee and a bite of food from the vendors to enjoy the race atmosphere
  • Listen to the live music
  • Stick around to support other runners as they cross the finish line and share their smiles
  • Watch the kids’ run being held at Silvan with 150+ kids aged 4-10yrs is always a bundle of fun!
  • Staying for presentations to acknowledge the winners and hopefully claim a spot prize
  • Posting on social media to tell the world what a great time you’ve had (#BitumenIsBoring)
  • Checking out your official results: Results
