Race Singlet Designs Are UP! Next GTNS Race Kunanyi Mountain Run. BTU Standard Entries Closing Soon, Wild Earth Training Camp
Race Singlet Designs are UP!
We are proud to announce that we’ve used an Australian Indigenous supplier to create our high-quality and stunning race singlets for the BTU2024.
For the BTU2024, we’ve taken inspiration from the iconic Cabbage Tree Palm (binkar), which is located on the BTU course and on the trails, especially prominent on Double Break at Mount Nebo.
Here are some fun Cabbage Tree Palm (binkar) Facts
The Cabbage Tree is one of the tallest native palms in Australia.
The cabbage tree palm thrives in moist sclerophyll forests and rainforest margins.
The growing tip of the palm is edible and can be served as vegetables! Imagine your kids eating them!
The tree’s fibrous bark can be made into lines, and its leaves can be used for weaving hats, baskets, and thatched roofing.
We are well into production of the Limited edition 2024 race singlets, so SIGN UP and secure your BTU 2024 souvenir singlet.
We still have spots in our Wild Earth BTU Training Camps with our stellar coaches, including Liam Mckenzie, Katie Dall, Jodie Oborne, and Susannah Harvey-Jamieson.
Our next training camp is on the 6th of April. You can choose from two distances.
30km
44km
We split the groups up depending on speed and ability so you get the most out of the day and are grouped with similar skilled runners. This means that you will also have two coaches in each group, so you can pick their brains and ask them everything about nutrition, hydration, night running, race strategy, recovery, injury prevention, and more! Plus you will receive a fantastic goodie bag from the team at Wild Earth!
