This is a 32km run or walk from the sea at Kingston Park beach to the summit of Mt Lofty. It's a solid days hike, and you're definitely ready for a refreshment of your choosing when you reach the end. There is also the option of a start halfway giving a 15km course still finishing at Mt Lofty.
There is a mix of parkland, trails and bitumen to walk through, and the elevation gain over the day is just on 1500m. Last year I completed the walk in under 6 hours which was a PB for me, but the leaders were so far out of sight that I think they caught a taxi! - my time was 5:52 and the leader was 5:06
So anyway, if any members are interested in going, maybe we could go as a group. The start is at 8am and the timing desk finishes at 4pm (or did last year), so there are 8 hours to complete the course, average of 4kmh including stops. Easy!
