Times:

This event will run continuously from 12pm on Saturday until just one runner remains.

Runners will drop out when they can’t go any further, until only one is left. This test of endurance allows runners of all experience levels to push their limits.

With no set finish line, everyone except the winner will record a DNF. But what matters is how far you can go before you stop.

Thanks to the rest period between laps, the backyard format is the perfect chance not just to beat a PB but to smash it.

This year, runners are chasing the coveted silver ticket, which guarantees them a place in the national team in 2026. The stakes are high.

Come along and witness Shepparton running history in the making.
