What’s Your Next Trail Running Goal?

Monday, May 2, 2022

With the new event date set for Saturday 6 August, there is still time to sign up for the Jabulani Challenge. Stunning single track, rainforest, bushland, steep hill inclines and creek crossings, the trails of Ku-ring-gai National Park at Bobbin Head are some of the most popular trails in Sydney. ITRA performance points are available for the longer distances, and the 45km event is a Six Foot Track Marathon qualifying race – so no matter what your trail running goals are, the Jabulani Challenge can help you get there.

With event distances of 12km, 22km & 45km, and three months of training ahead, there’s no excuse not to join us for a fun day out on the trails!
