Quick Checklist
• Race week starts on Thursday morning and ends on Sunday afternoon. You are welcome to attend all race week activities.
• Race Expo is at Rotorua Holiday Inn (10 Tryon Street, Rotorua) between 12-noon and 8pm on Friday 10 February. There will be Tarawera
merchandise plus sponsors products.
• Race registration is at Rotorua Holiday Inn between 3 and 8pm on Friday. Bring your Photo ID to register and compulsory gear if it is
required.
• If you cannot make it, a friend can pick up your race number (62km and relay events only) – they will need a printed copy of your Photo
ID or you must register between 3 and 8pm.
• DO NOT queue up for registration before it opens if you can avoid it. Avoid the rush – enjoy the expo – go to the briefings and seminars
(and Tarawera Store)- and do anything to avoid the long wait.
• Remember to pick up safety pins at the registration desk.
• Your timing chip is on the back of your race number. Do not bend or break your race number and make sure it is visible and facing
forward on race day. Safety information is printed on the back of your race number.
• All drop bags and headlamps must be labelled (we provide pre-printed labels for you and your supporters).
• You can change your distance at race registration on Friday. A $30 admin fee will apply.
• You can buy a forest permit for your car ($5) or a bus ticket ($20) at the Expo on Friday.
• All 87 and 102km ultrarunners must be weighed before they can register, therefore no one can register on their behalf.
• All runners: plan to be at the 102/87km start-line in the Redwoods forest no later than 5.20am. Traffic will be heavy. Our shuttle buses
will take all 62km runners to the start-line on Millar Road immediately after the 102/87km start.
