Drop Bags
Drop bags are exclusively for solo entrants. Solo participants will have access to personal drop bags at four DU Hub locations on course. Each runner will pass through each of these points twice and therefore will have access to their drop bags on several occasions. Runners should prepare drop bags accordingly. Bags must be sealable, made of fabric or mesh (no plastic bags), clearly labelled and have carry handles.
Drop bags should be brought to the start line on Friday morning and placed behind signs indicating which Hub you would like them transported too.
Please refer to event Hub Matrix to calculate distances between each of these for your planning purposes.
Note: Due to the gnarly terrain in the first and last 56km of DU135 it is estimated to take participants over 10 hours to travel these distances. Please prepare drop bags accordingly.
As each Hub closes drop bag will be transported back to the start line. We will endeavour to have all drop bags back to Mackenzie Flat Picnic area by 2pm on Sunday for retrieval at race presentations.
It is expected crewed entrants are tendered to sufficiently at each checkpoint by their crew.
