Runners hit the Ultra-trail

Noosa Ultra-Trail welcomes over 1,500 runners from all over Australia from 21-24 March to experience the spectacular Noosa Biosphere Trails located within Noosa Hinterland.

Now firmly established on the Australian trail running calendar, Noosa Ultra-Trail offers runners a choice of six distances, including the Forest 15km, Cross Country 25km, Pomona Sundowner 30km, Out’N’Back 50km, Hinterland Traverse 80km, and the marquee event – the Ultra-Trail 100km.

The diverse range in distances and terrain has attracted road runners, triathletes, adventure racers, and of course traditional trail runners. The event is a UTMB INDEX level event, attracting some of the best trail runners from across the nation, including race ambassador Kellie Angel (nee Emmerson, a 3 x World Trail Running Championships Australian representative).

Joining Kellie as race ambassadors are Craig Alexander (5 x World Triathlon Champion and 12 x Australian Triathlon Champion), Matt Golinski (nationally recognised celebrity chef and Noosa local) and Kat Harding (yoga instructor and Noosa local). Across the weekend, a range of lifestyle activities are scheduled to give participants the opportunity to experience the best of Noosa alongside ambassadors.
