The inaugural Noosa Ultra-Trail which was launched in September 2021 has officially sold out with over 1,100 runners making it one of the leading events on the Australian trail running calendar.
Being staged from 23 to 27 March, there will be six different distance options ranging from 15km to 100km with events in the morning and afternoon on Saturday 26.
The 2022 theme will be an ‘International’ one with a range of food vendors, a village green and even wine glasses for age group prize winners to acknowledge Noosa’s reputation as a premium culinary destination.
Part of the appeal of the Noosa Ultra-Trail is the range of opportunities for visitors to enjoy the Noosa lifestyle with organised activities including yoga, river cruises, an ocean swim, sunrise and sunset treks, a women in sport luncheon and a few casual runs.
Four national identities have been secured as event ambassadors including Australian representative trail runner Kellie Emmerson, three time Ironman World Champion Craig ‘Crowie’ Alexander, International Yoga and Wellness practitioner Kat Harding and celebrity chef and trail runner Matt Golinksi.
Significantly the Noosa Ultra-Trail will be a qualifying event for the new Ultra-Trail Mont Blanc (UTMB) World Series. The weeklong UTMB event in Chamonix, France attracts over 10,000 runners annually from all over the world.
