This course will have you playing a life size version of Chutes and Ladders. In accordance with the game, you may find your performance helped or hindered by the naturally-formed "chutes" and "ladders" embedded in the topography. But don't forget, it's just a game and games are fun!

Sure, we said Snakes 'n' Ladders provided the most elevation per km, but we're splitting hairs now. Align your breath with your movement and you'll maximize your Qi (Chi) on this one. Then you can simply float up the hills. If that doesn't work, you can try stealing others' chi, but that might be unethical.

Welcome to the Perth Alps, for our race finale! The roo's might not be wearing cow bells, but we'll do our best to give you the WA version of a Swiss alpine race. So, if you hear someone yelling, "Hop hop hop!" it isn't a strange reference to kangaroo behaviour, but is rather the Swiss cheer for "Go!" similar to "Allez allez!" heard in France and "Bravo!" heard in Italy.
