The new track at Mt Cargill is ready for walkers and runners in today’s 3 Peaks Mountain Race. PHOTO: SUPPLIEDOrganisers of the 3 Peaks Mountain Race are thrilled a new section of track at Mt Cargill has been completed in time for tomorrow’s annual trail running event. There were concerns the track would not be completed by telecommunications company Kordia, who had blocked the previous track by erecting fences around the transmission tower. The three peaks in question were Flagstaff (668m), Swampy Summit (739m) and Mt Cargill (676m). Most will be taking on the classic 26km course, climbing the three peaks starting in Woodhaugh St, North Dunedin.
