Hydration & Feed Stations
Please check the event webpage for the locations of the feed stations and details of what will be available. All Inertia Events are 100% cupless. There will be no paper cups or bottles of water provided at feed stations, so you must carry your own collapsible cup, reusable bottle or hydration system if you wish to take on water during the event.

We advise you to check the weather forecast and conditions for event day and come prepared accordingly. We will provide updates if conditions require it, but as adults, what you choose to wear is entirely at your discretion. Our event car parks are always close to the start area, so we recommend bringing a few clothing options with you, allowing you to make the final decision when you arrive.
