The run is all on trails, rock, beaches and duckboard offering spectacular coastal views with approximately 10km on sealed road. Depending on tide movements it may be necessary to wade across Sealers Creek at Sealers Cove. The Prom 100 will be a totally self supported run, it is not a race. Runners are fully responsible for their own safety and assume full liability for their participation. Participants should offer assistance to other runners in distress. NB. A strict limit of 35 participants has been imposed by PWS. No support personnel or equipment is available other than at Tidal river. This is an arduous course with constant climbs that take a cumulative toll. The run has been scheduled for Saturday 26 April with the pre race briefing taking place on Friday 25 April. Weather conditions could be cold, wet and windy. Hypothermia is a serious risk and all runners should be prepared. On the other hand being early April it could be warm to hot!! The Prom 100 run is should only be attempted by experienced trail runners with good navigation experience. The run will start and finish in the dark. As a minimum, runners attempting the course must have successfully completed at least one 50 km organised trail run in the previous 6 months. This race is part of the Trail Running Victoria series.
