Byron Bay is in NSW and operates on 'daylight saving' (an hour before Qld). Program times are approximate.
All athletes must report to the Call Room/Athlete 'check in' at least 15 minutes before the start of their event to receive their hip number (you must check in multiple times if entering multiple races). The call room will close 10mins before the scheduled start time of the event.
Perpetual trophies will be given to the fastest three males and females in each event distance. All races are timed finals, with perpetual trophies based on the fastest time run from any heat. Age category awards (juniors/opens/masters) will also be given if we have a minimum of 10 male and 10 female runners in each category (otherwise results will be aggregated across categories).
Trackside: Music, live race commentary, athlete interviews; food and drinks available for purchase
