Would like other suggestions?

That's a long list! Can't see UTMB? I've realised that I have 4 UTMB points in the bank so given I will be back in Europe, considering entering OCC (55km) lottery for 2018...

I left UTMB out because I'll never run 160km. I'll consider OCC for 2019. Means I'll have to get some points in 2018 which I plan to do anyway.

Yeah by UTMB I meant also the short races, I don't see myself doing the full either. But would be cool to do OCC in 2018 and CCC in 2019 :)

I'm tempted by this - alpine ascent 50km, same weekend as six foot, will see what I make of it once I've been along some of those trails in Jan though.

Im keen for Cradle or Bogong - Hotham in 2019.

Solitary Ultra on April 8, 2018 is a good option. Alpine Challenge 100km looks cool

I may do Solitary 2019

Nice!

Nice!

Need approximate times of year next to each of these...

Agree, will get to it at some point

Started

can you sort the list by month please

and colour code by entry price

And should I organise a payment system where I fund entry fees too?

yes. Also list the three closest breweries to each race.

with suggested beer selections for each one based on your existing untapped account

Travel and transport logistic packages for the o/s ones too please.

Which ones are you ticking off this year andy?

Hopefully as a minimum Solitary (you already did), one of the VIC races, and one local overseas

Been advised of this one on Lombok.
https://rinjani100.com
Over 9,000m climb for the 100km though. Original route is the 60km, that's only 5,300m climb.

Bromo Ultra

Ijen Ultra

Shame this one starts at night.
http://mantrasc.com/

nice!

any more thoughts on the HK double in Feb?

More locally for you Andy:

Thunderbolts (Barrington Tops NP - Oct)
Freedom 50km (Nightcap NP - Nov)
Misty Mountains (Mt Warning Area)
Great Ocean Run 45km (Red Rock to Coffs - April)

Also Larapinta stage race

Unlikely for HK next year because will be going to Europe a few months later. But hopefully the year after.

Just looked 9 Dragons and TransLantau doesn't marry up in 2019. One 1st Feb, the next 1st Mar.

At this stage will be in Europe approx. 8 Jun - 10 Jul if you're there too and find any cool races

And thanks Keelan.

Already considered some of those races.

Thunderbolts - not really interested for an out-and-back course, but maybe sometime if I'm in the area
Misty Mountain - 3 x laps and not near the good trails around Mt.Warning
Larapinta - don't have the time or patience

I've added Freedom and Great Ocean Run.

List updated

any races in europe on your radar while over there?

Unfortunately most in Jul-Sep. Might be able to stay long enough for Lavaredo in Italy end of June.

That's why my list got updated just now. Was trying to find races in June.

Updated
List getting a bit long now

Can you sort by date and hemisphere?
