Australian 6 Day Ultra Marathon Festival - 2026 Australian 6 Day Ultra National Championship

Thorndon Park defines this race: a tight, repeated loop offering no respite from the clock. The Australian 6 Day Ultra Marathon Festival continues the established tradition of 6-Day endurance events, designed for runners who recognize patience as integral to the effort, not an afterthought. The course is straightforward: runners circle repeatedly, "running as many kilometres as they can across 6 days." Ultra runners travel globally seeking international, national, and personal records, but the appeal extends beyond statistics; "The camaraderie, challenge and community are like no other event you've experienced."
