Fresh Look, New Dates: SEQ Trail Series Season 14 is Coming!

Here's a sneak peek at the brand-new design for Season 14 of the SEQ Trail Series 👀.

SEQ Trail Series Update 🚨 Just a couple of quick things to keep you in the loop:

🐨 Help us clear some space!
We’ve still got plenty of the iconic Koala Singlets in stock and we’d love to see them out on the trails rather than sitting in boxes! We’ve dropped the price to an ALL-TIME LOW of just $20. Grab a bargain and help us clear the deck.

📅 Save the Date: Season 14 kicks off at Enoggera Reservoir on 11 October 2026!

With a new season comes a brand new look. Here is your first clue for the Season 14 theme: 🐍

Records were made to be broken… and Daisy Hill delivered. 🔥🏃‍♂️

3 out of 4 course records went down at Round 8 — a huge day on the trails.

👏 Women’s Long Course (18.3km)
Sally Matsubara – 1:29:17

- Extra special shoutout to Amy who also holds the course records at Bunyaville and Wyaralong Dam!

Outstanding performances across the board.

And a quick note on distances — while the short course was marked as 12.6km, most runners recorded just over 13km on the day. Just a little bonus challenge to finish the season 😉

Massive congratulations to all runners who took on Daisy Hill — fast, tough, and a perfect way to close out the series.
