Event Overview
Claypit Circuit is a Masters Athletics Western Australia road event held at the Perry Lakes Hockey Pavillion in Floreat, WA. The 2026 edition is scheduled for Sunday 20 September, with races starting at 8:00am. Three distance options are listed: 10km, 6.8km and 3.7km. The event listing also notes an AGM at 9:45am and names Geoff Vine and Keith Miller as race directors.
What the Course Demands
With three distance choices, Claypit Circuit can be approached either as a shorter, controlled effort or a longer sustained run. Race execution will depend on matching early pace to the chosen distance and maintaining rhythm through the full circuit. The official listing references a course map, but detailed gradients and underfoot specifics are not stated, so athletes should be prepared for a straightforward loop-style race format.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners who want a morning race with multiple distance options on the same day. The 3.7km and 6.8km options can fit athletes newer to organised racing, while the 10km is appropriate for those looking to benchmark aerobic pacing over a standard distance. It also suits Masters Athletics participants aligning racing with the club calendar.
