The Great North Walk Ultras

The Great North Walk Ultras

The Great North Walk 100s (GNW100s), organized by the Terrigal Trotters running club for the first time in 2005, are two simultaneous trail races, a 100 Miles and a 100 Kilometres, along The Great North Walk south from Teralba on Lake Macquarie. The 100 Kilometres race will finish at Yarramalong in the scenic Yarramalong Valley and the 100 Miles at Patonga on spectacular Broken Bay. Although the route is primarily on foot tracks and fire-trails, it does include some minor back roads. There is more than 6, 200 metres (20, 000ft) of ascent (and descent) in the 100 Miles and 3, 800 metres (12, 500ft) of ascent in the 100 Kilometres.
