    Cassia Hill Enduro 2025

    May 31st 2025, 7:00am - 9:00am

    The popular Cassia Hill Enduro is back again this year. It will be held on Saturday 31st May 2025 starting at 7:00am. For those who missed the fun last year here is a brief run down. How many laps of the 1.80km trail can you run in 1 hour? Runners will take off at the start of the track near Deakin Drive run in and do as many loops of the hill as they can in 60 minutes. Last year's highest number was 10 by both our junior and open runners. Can we go higher this year? Who will take home the prize? The difference this year is that we will tackle the trail in the clockwise direction. This is not a very technical trail, but there are some narrow portions, so runners need to be careful. There will be prizes for the open male, open female and open junior male and female with the most loops. There will also be a morning tea afterwards.
