Run + Coffee : Long Run ~11km Yarra Trail, Southbank & finish at Kanteen
Details
Join my "Long Easy Run" training run along the Yarra Trail. A lot of new members have listed "Running" as one of their activities, so here's a chance to get out for a run.
The trail is very flat and scenic along the river and into Southbank and makes for a very enjoyable morning run. I'll be running at a slow-moderate pace between 6:25 and 5:50 minute/km depending on the terrain. Regular runners can maintain a conversation at this pace.
This is a long run from my Garmin training program.
10 min warm up (target pace ~6:30 min/km)
50 min at 6:15 min/km target average pace
10 min cool down (target pace ~6:30 min/km)
You can stay with the group or choose your own pace. The trail is easy to follow and we all meet at the end at Kanteen so you can choose to go much faster or take your time. Just let me know at the start what you plan to do. Regardless of pace, the aim is to arrive at Kanteen at around 10:30am.
The map above is the running trail.
- Start at the Richmond Boulie Carpark on the Yarra Trail.
- Run along the Northern bank of the Yarra river
- Cross over at Ponyfish Island to the South bank of the Yarra river
- Run along the South bank heading East until you reach Kanteen
We finish at Kanteen where you can grab a coffee, cold drink or snack. From Kanteen, it's a short walk back to the start.
