WHO WE ARE
Our Mission
Perth Trail Series is a purpose driven social enterprise. We’re so much more than your standard event operator. Out of the many (~90) events we organise throughout the year, only 15 are commercial in nature with the vast majority being free social events and cause driven outings, like rubbish clean-ups and weekly group runs.
Our Director
Melina Mellino is one of the leading trail running ambassadors in Australia, and particularly here in WA. She’s committed to bringing more and more runners to the trails while advocating for preserving the environment and building our community.
You’ll find Melina doing some of her best work on the mic at our events – getting everyone pumped up and raring to go! Make sure you say hey to Melina at your event – she’d love to meet you! Woohoo!
Meet The Team
Vince– He’s our course creator and responsible for all the PTS gear, including our massive trailer. From sourcing, to painting, to driving it out he’s super handy and we couldn’t do it without him!
Shane – He’s the reason your results are LIVE before you get home from the event! He loves making sure that your time is accurately saved and you had the best day!
Stu – He’s our Comms HQ! Checking in with all the Woohoo Crew, filtering the many messages we receive on the day, and making the team laugh with sense of humour. And he’s got his whole family involved!
Leith– He’s responsible for keeping the event village running so smoothly! He loves seeing everyone kicking their trail running goals and having fun!
Hsu– You won’t leave our Merch tent without being convinced you’ll have more fun being branded PTS! She’s so enthusiastic about seeing everyone on event day and having fun!
Alan- He’s the reason why you’ll be able to navigate the courses with ease. All course markers are laid out by Alan! And usually checked by him the next morning too! He clocks up some kms for sure…
