There are a sh!tload of awesome events on the trail running calendar these days. Just a heap. So many so, that it would literally be impossible to run them all. Casting my eye over event calendars in recent weeks I came up with the following list of Australian events (don't even get me started on NZ) which, if I had the time and no other responsibilities, would be how I would run my year in 2016.

Jan - Bogong to Hotham, VIC
Mar - Six Foot Track, NSW or Up The Buff, QLD (I'm a little biased on this one!)
Apr - Mt Solitary Ultra, NSW
Aug - Run Larapinta, NT or Wonderland Run, VIC
Sep - Wild Earth Coastal High 50, QLD (again, a little biased, but you'd be hard up arguing against this one)
Nov - Alpine Challenge, VIC
Dec - 6 Inch Trail Marathon, WA (I couldn't end the year without heading to WA)

Notable omissions:
Mar - Tassie Trail Fest,TAS (I've never been to Tassie so I'm keen to get down there)
Apr - Buffalo Stampede, VIC
Apr - Mt Buller Skyrun, VIC

I wish to reinforce to my wife that I WILL NOT be running all these events in 2016.

And the above list would be notably different if I had also included NZ events.

Alright - who wants to add some events to the above list? What would you be running?
