The North Shore 24 Hour event, slated for 12 April 2025, is a self-sustained trail run/walk situated in Birkdale, Auckland. This event involves multiple laps around a 6.4km loop, with participants given the flexibility to complete as many circuits as they wish within a 24-hour period. The level of participation can range from completing a single loop to striving for a new personal best in distance covered.
The event is centered at Lauderdale Reserve and the selected route is a specially marked 6.4km stretch of the Eskdale trail. One unique aspect of this trail run is the application of Kauri dieback protocols to preserve the local ecosystem. Participants are expected to utilise the basic wash station provided at the start of the race, along with spray/scrub stations positioned at permanent locations throughout the course. Please note that specific details of the event may vary and updates will be provided as additional information becomes available.
