Full Perth Trail Summer Series: Stay Puft 11.5K Route Breakdown

The Stay Puft courses wind through the native bush of Yanchep National Park, starting and finishing at the Chocolate Drops site. All three distances are looped routes that stay mostly flat – the easiest of the summer series – but still give a true trail feel with single‑track sections, occasional rock or boulder steps and patches of loose sand. Runners will enjoy views of the park’s woodland, limestone outcrops and native wildlife, while staying on well‑marked paths that loop back to the start area for a convenient finish.

Training Strategy for Perth Trail Summer Series: Stay Puft 11.5K

Standard Training Window

6-10 weeks is a solid window for a 7.15-mile race. Combine a weekly long run with threshold work so you can hold pace over the full distance.

Terrain Specificity

This is a largely flat course, so most of your long runs can mirror that — flat and steady, building time on feet rather than hill strength.

The Taper Phase

Ease off mileage in the final week, keeping a couple of short, sharp race-pace efforts to stay fresh. Arrive at Yanchep National Park / Chocolate Drops, 3499 Wanneroo Rd, Yanchep, WA 6035, Australia fresh, energized, and primed — not fit, fresh.

Pacing Execution

Lock in your target pace using the interactive splits calculator below — no official pacers are confirmed for this event, so a pace band on your watch is the more reliable option.

Fuel & Hydration Prep

Test your race-day fuel and hydration plan on your long training runs, not for the first time on race day — check the Race Day Checklist below for what's actually on this course.

7.15-Mile Nutrition & Fueling Plan

2-3 Days Prior

A normal diet is fine. There is no need to carb-load for a race of this length.

Race Morning

Eat a carbohydrate-focused breakfast two to three hours before the start, and stick to something you've already tested in training rather than trying anything new.

On-Course Fueling

No on-course fuel is needed at this distance for most runners — water stations are the usual provision.

Post-Race Recovery

A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
