RACE INFORMATION
Due to the non availability of major sections of trails due to new post – pandemic restrictions, the trail sections in the current race routes have been reduced. We had to improvise as much as we were allowed to by the relevant Parks authorities. Buff Forest Force Run Series is an unorthodox hybrid race which consists of a wide variety of terrain. It is not to be mistaken for as a purely trail race which it is not. However trails make up for at least 50% of the race routes for the 20km, 30km & 50km. The 10km race is a special Rail Corridor North edition race. Full details of the 10km Rail Corridor North edition race can be found in the individual race routes section.
