Training plan for the The Spectacle Trail 53K
Saturday, 5 December 2026 in Nelson, New Zealand. That is 2 weeks away.
When a build would have to start
OLTRA plans a block of a length that suits the distance, then works backwards from race day. For this one:
50K — a 20-week build, 5 runs a week
Not enough room left for the full build.
On the day
One distance: 50K. Entries, course and timings are thespectacle.co.nz’s. They decide when entries open and close, and whether the race runs at all — OLTRA sells nothing here and takes nothing from them.
The date here is the one the organiser published, rechecked every 1 hour against the list. Confirm it on their site before you enter.
