Description
The Rainbow Run is a challenge set in the Redwoods Forest of Rotorua. The Rainbow Run requires the runner to complete every colour track in any order they wish but the tracks must be done in the signposted direction. The tracks are -
- Red Track
- Blue Track
- Green Track
- Yellow Track
- Purple Track
- Black Track
When this route was originally posted to our site, only three runners were known to have completed the challenge:
- Mike Leopard - 6h49m - Rotorua Trail Running Club, date unknown
- Dean Muggeridge - 8h05m36s - Rotorua Trail Running Club, date unknown
- Clive Start - 8:52:58 (total elapsed time), 06/27/2016
These runs were self supported with a central start point which became a base for which all the running loops veer off.
Since then, there is a Strava Segment for the route, and the idea seems to be catching on.
Total distance - 61.2 kms or - 38 miles.
