Less than a week out…

around the time every ultra runner also becomes an amateur meteorologist checking the forecast every 5 mins... Yes, the weather can have an impact on your race day. However, you can't control it, and it's going to be what it's going to be! The best thing you can do is be prepared for all scenarios, particularly in the highly changeable alpine environment. The best trail runners are prepared for every eventuality, with the right gear and equipment to adapt to whatever happens out there on the trails. So whether it's a scorcher or a freezer out there - you'll be ready! Plan for all eventualities, as microclimates can throw anything at you, the weather in one valley will not necessarily be the same as another! What does that mean? Pack the sunscreen and the puffer jacket... #UltraTrailKosciuszko
