BLUE MOUNTAINS FITNESS is one of only a few companies with a National Parks and Wildlife ECO PASS licence to carry out run training on the Ultra Trail Australia course. We have been training runners for 15 years to complete the arduous UTA course since 2011. We have highly experienced trainers who know the trails better than most. 

We are NPWS ECO PASS  licensed and insured to carry out this training within the National Park.
 
WHY? This is a great training run to get a look at the UTA courses and terrain, have a nice easy taper or see where you are at with your training. The Run trainers at BMF have a wealth of experience to pass on - race prep, race gear, training and race nutrition, race strategy. pacing and info on the course. 

We do not leave runners and walkers behind. We have plenty of options with the different pace groups and distances. Our Run Trainers are highly experienced and will see who is doing it easy and also those who are finding it not so easy!

THE COURSE. We will do the UTA11 course. Additional trails used in UTA will be added to the UTA11 course to get up to 24km. 

PACE GROUPS. We'll have 3 Pace Groups - The mighty TURTLES, a MID PACED group and the SPEEDY HARES.

GEAR. We will be using this as a race day prep run and ask you to bring the UTA22 Mandatory gear.

START TIME. Nice late start!
Turtles pace group will start first at 9am. 
Hares will also start at 9am but do a little bit extra giving the Turtles a head start.

START/FINISH LOCATION. Violet Street opposite Scenic World, Katoomba

DISTANCE. 11-24km.

FINISH TIME. We expect to be finished in 2 to 3.5 hours depending on what distance and pace you run. 

The Hares and Mid Paced will do a little extra km at the start and chase the Turtles group. When the groups meet we may swap runners around in the pace groups. You will not be left behind! Our guides are very experienced and will keep the groups together but still push the fitter, faster runners if needed.
