RULES

No littering. If caught, you will be disqualified.

No shortcuts. Same penalty as above.

Mandatory hydration to be carried in every event: 500 ml container

Bibs must be worn on the front and visible at all times.

If you need to retire early from the event (DNF), you must notify a race volunteer as soon as possible. We cannot pack up and go home with people unaccounted for.

Obey the directions of all race volunteers. They have the right to remove you from the course for safety reasons (e.g., you become injured, you reach a cutoff too late) or for violating one of the rules.

If on single track and wanting to pass, call out to the person in front of you with something simple and succinct such as, "passing, please." That person must make way for you when it is safe for them to do so. Be sure you're ready to pass; no one appreciates being passed only to find themselves walking on that person's heels.

In addition to rules which help preserve our environment, our rules are there to help you keep safe in the bush. In addition to the usual risks of trail running, such as dehydration, hypothermia, cuts, sprains, broken bones, and snake bites, there is also a threat of bushfire. We advise you to read this document prepared by a Bushfire Services of WA officer in 1998 (Bushfire Services pre-dated FESA).
