SAVE THE DATE
The Routeburn Classic Race Date was “announced” yesterday as Saturday 12th April 2025 and entries open on 1st August 2024 @ 10am.
Huge note has been put into my diary and I’ll be refreshing like a mad woman that morning ..
Keep your fingers crossed, with only 400 entries on offer, it might actually be harder to nab a spot than to actually “run” the 32 kilometres.
Although in fairness, my first goal would be to make the cut off point @ MacKenzie Hut.
Makenzie Hut Cut Off Time
YOU MUST REACHÂ Mackenzie Hut (12km mostly up hill) BEFORE THE 11AM CUT OFF TIME (approx 2 and a half hours from the start). Those who do not meet this cut of time will return to the start either with the marshals or in their own time. The marshalls will assist with rides back to Queenstown

I see SO many hills in my future ..
And leg workouts ..
And donuts .. cause .. they make hills and leg workouts worth it.
Till next time

Generally I’d also post a link, just in case you also wanted to run .. but with only 400 entries on offer, it’s every human for themselves. 😉
