Rail Trail Run
Calculated from 54 km alone — the organiser has not published an elevation profile. Read 2.7 as a floor, not a verdict.
What the course asks
DUV results for the 2025 edition (54km) — finishers only. Starters are not published, so the field was at least this big and no finish rate can be given.
Typical conditions, September
Regional 2001-2020 average for September — NASA POWER, grid elevation 165 m. Not a forecast.
