Weekly Newsletter 20 August 2025
This week's newsletter showcases Trail Run Australia Sunshine Coast; along with interesting articles, including the ultimate guide to sleep for runners.
10 Hours. One Epic Sunshine Coast Trail Challenge.
Think you’ve got what it takes to outrun the clock? The Trail Run Australia Sunshine Coast 10hr Ultra is part race, part party, and all trail-running fun.
Tackle a 6km rainforest lap every hour—solo, with a buddy, in a team, or as a family. Go the distance or just enjoy a lap (or three) between BBQ bites and festival tunes. From elite endurance junkies to weekend warriors and tiny trailblazers, everyone’s welcome.
Your legs will ache, your cheeks will hurt from smiling, and you’ll be counting down to next year before you’ve even finished.
