Welcome to
Freetrail's coverage of the 2025 Tarawera by UTMB! Set against the
beautiful backdrop of Rotorua, NZ, an outdoor and trail sport
mecca known for its rolling hills, thermal pools, and beautiful
lakes, Tarawera plays host to four different race distances —
100m, 102k, 50k, & 21k. We'll be covering as much as we can from
all races, with a particular focus on the 102k where four
Golden Tickets to Western States are on the
line.
This is our official 102k pre-race show
discussing the history of Tarawera, the course, the top contenders,
and our predictions for how things might
unfold.
Follow along for coverage all weekend and
follow us on IG for race day coverage from
the course.
Thanks to HOKA for supporting the
show!
