Start Waves
To ensure a smooth, safe, and fair experience for all participants, the 10.5km event will begin with a rolling start from 8:45am. Participants will start in consecutive waves based on their pre-selected start group. Please be realistic when selecting your start wave — this helps manage flow on the trails and improves everyone's experience on course. Your wave number is printed on your race bib, and signage will guide you to the correct start area on event morning. All timing is mat-to-mat, meaning your official time starts when you cross the start line.
