Trail Run Confessional  – tell us your dirty trail secrets (of the mind if not the flesh) and you could WIN A PAIR OF Ultra Trail IIs (pictured below and reviewed in current edition of TRM. Yes, they come in other colours, too).

In the lead up to The North Face 100, we’re giving away FOUR PAIRS of The North Face Ultra Trail II’s, one pair per week. Read on for how to win…

With all the hours spent on the trails in the lead up to The North Face 100, you spend a lot of time with yourself, and your thoughts. Sometimes they might shock you, you may conceive brilliance, or you may spiral down a rabbit-hole and forget you’re running altogether.

We want to hear your strangest thoughts, your most brilliant epiphanies, or the most trivial and repetitive musings that accompany you on the trails. Or maybe something you do that shocks, revolts, disgusts, surprises, amuses… we all have our habits…and sometimes the trail is long. Weird stuff happens, y’know…

How to Enter:

1. Follow The North Face – Australia & New Zealand Facebook page (judged winners need to have ‘liked’)

2. Comment on our weekly photo that we will post from The North Face – posted every Monday morning on our (Trail Run Mag’s) Facebook stream, so you better have liked that, too! – with your Trail Run Confessional of the week. Images will be posted by 8am each Monday from 6 April.

3. Hashtag after your comment: #TrailRunConfessional

4. We are looking for the strange, the brilliant, the mundane. One winner will be chosen each week based on the creativity of their confessional.
