Brisbane Kokoda Challenge 29 May - New Entry to the Drive Fitness Event Calendar

Drive Fitness is introducing a new event into our 2011calendar. We are looking to put a team together for the first ever Kokoda Challenge Brisbane. More information regarding Drive Fitness teams will be discussed soon. The information flyer is attached below to get you ready!

In honour of the Kokoda Spirit, this new 30km event winds through some of Brisbane’s toughest terrain.
The track undulates through the green scenery in the west of Brisbane Forest Park.  Starting at Brookfield showgrounds you and your team will make your way up to the half way checkpoint at McAfee’s Lookout before returning to showgrounds via the tropical terrain of D’Aguilar National Park that is reminiscent of the Owen Stanley Ranges in Papua New Guinea.

The 30k distance coupled with wide open fire trails makes this the perfect event for beginners or runners having a hit out. Teams of two, three and four will find the course is not without toils, as you descend down to a creek bed you encounter a sharp turn onto a narrow trail aptly named ‘hell hole’ - ensuring that you don’t forget the meaning of endurance before arriving at the finish line.
