Her Trails Coaching
Surf Coast Century 100km Relay (Team of 2)
Program for Women
Share the full century with your crew. This 20-week Her Trails program is designed to build endurance, strength and confidence across runnable coastal terrain, focused on aerobic durability, smart pacing and consistent training so you run your relay leg with strength and control.
The Course
Running your Relay Leg
Sea cliffs, wildflower hinterland, remote beaches and Otway bushland along the Great Ocean Road, split between you and your teammate. Sharing the distance means you can run your leg hard and still enjoy the Feel Good Ultra atmosphere as a team.
Seven fully-stocked checkpoints, spectator access and a buzzing finish line expo make race day a genuine team weekend away.
The Course Demands
What your leg asks of you
Over 20 weeks we build the aerobic durability, pacing sense and trail confidence to run your leg strong, whichever section you draw.
Aerobic Durability
Steady long runs and progressive volume build the aerobic base to run your leg with confidence and control.
Coastal + Bushland Terrain
Sea cliffs, beaches and Otway bushland each ask for a different rhythm. Sessions build comfort across all surfaces.
Pacing Your Leg
Whether your leg is short and fast or long and steady, sessions train the pacing sense to run it to plan.
Race-Day Confidence
Handover logistics, checkpoint strategy and gear rehearsal are trained specifically, so race day feels calm and fun.
