General Information

- As the event start/finish precinct is adjacent the main road, we encourage competitors and spectators to be mindful of general traffic.
-Throughout the course of the Boyne Valley 50, vehicular traffic has priority at all crossings. If you are asked to stop by a race official, or if there is oncoming traffic at an unmanned crossing, you must stop.
- Only feet are allowed within the starting corral. No bikes, scooters, horses or camels. This is for the safety of all competitors.
- Follow the Code of Conduct in the image below and any instructions from permanent signage on the trail. It's there for your safety and to best preserve the trail.
- Toilet access is available at the Builyan Many Peaks Community Development Association, opposite the parking area at the Builyan Recreation Grounds on Pine St. Temporary camp toilets will be available at Golembil siding aid station and Barrimoon tunnels aid station. 25k competitors will have access to the composting toilets at Barrimoon siding before making their way to the start line.
- Aid stations with water, fruit and some hydration products will be provided at Golembil siding and Barrimoon tunnels. No cups will be provided at the aid stations, please BYO cup or water bottle. For 50k competitors, an aid station will be at the 15k, 25k and 35k points. For 25k competitors, an aid station will be at the 10k point.
- Telstra phone reception works between Calliope and Builyan, but not up the range to Kalpower. Optus phone reception is very limited anywhere in the Boyne Valley.
- All rubbish must go in provided bins. Anything you take onto the trail must come back with you or be left at an aid station.
- Drop bags can be utilised by those competing in the 50k event. These must be 'soft sided' bags, clearly labelled and given to the registration team by no later than 6.45am on race day. One drop bag is allowed per competitor.
- If you need to withdraw from the event at any point after signing on, please ensure you let the Milepost Events race director know prior to leaving the area so that we don't end up with a search and rescue operation on our hands. As competitors cross the finish line to record their times, we also use this as a head count.
- Be courteous on the trail. Keep to the left to allow returning runners room or for faster runners to pass. If passing another competitor, give them notice of your intention and only do so when safe for yourself and the other competitor.
- For the safety of our competitors, we are encouraging all entries to consider this a running race event. Those who wish to walk the trail are kindly asked not to register to ensure event places are available for those wanting to compete against themselves or others.
- Under whatever circumstances, the race director has final say on any competitors ability to continue due to health or injury concerns or regarding changes to the event in the case of issues on the trail. Please cooperate with our team, volunteers and contracted personnel.
- All events held by Milepost Events are showcasing our team and the running community to the public. We want everyone involved or affected by these events to allow us to continue for many years to come. All it takes is a smile, a G'day or a wave.
