Waste
The Banks Peninsula and Crater Rim Trails are some of the most beautiful places on earth and we want them to stay this way. Competitors must carry a reusable cup for drinks, available as part of our merchandise. Please dispose of any waste in the rubbish bags provided at aid stations throughout the race and at the start and finish area. Should any runner be caught littering on any trail areas they will be disqualified. Likewise should a support crew member be caught littering – they will be reported and their runner will also be disqualified.
