    Background
    The XTERRA trail run series is back in 2009 and promises to deliver to you, some stunning course options in some equally stunning locations in and around Auckland. Generally locations will be within one hours drive of central Auckland.

    The XTERRA trail run series has become a stalwart on the winter events calendar, and attracts people that are keen to get out there and give it a go - people from all walks of life, all ages, gender and abilities. This is a low key series of events that offer like minded people an opportunity to get together and give it a decent nudge.

    All of the good bits remain unchanged, the focus has and always will be about the quality of the courses. At the end of your jaunt, there will always be a sausage sizzling away on the BBQ and a cold Speights with your name on it.
