Registration Information
The fifth WildEndurance will be held over the weekend of 5 - 6 May 2012. WildEndurance is a 100km 36 hour team trek challenge in the beautiful World Heritage wilderness of the Blue Mountains.
Walk 50k or all the way...
Kicking off at 8am on Saturday 5th May, participating teams travel together on foot through mountain wilderness, choosing to complete either the full 100km, the 50km option or dividing into two relay groups each travelling 50km.
100km teams consist of 4 or more members and 50km and relay teams of 3 or more members. Find out more about the event categories here.
There is a strict 36 hour time limit with regular checkpoints where teams meet up with their support crews. 50km teams have 21 hours to finish.

Event Cancellation
In the event that the event course is, in the opinion of the event organisers, unsafe (for example by reason of heavy rain, high winds, bushfires, "acts of god"), organisers may, in their sole discretion, attempt to re-route the course, find an alternative shortened course or cancel the event. Organisers also reserve the right to cancel the event for any other reason which may include but is not limited to terrorism and war. If the event is cancelled, re-routed or shortened, no refund or transfer to another event will be made. Due to the scale of the event and travel & commitment involved by competitors, it is not practical or preferable to re-schedule the event to any other weekend.
What happens if I need to withdraw before the event?
The first thing to do is e-mail us here and let us know.
If you withdraw more than 30 days before the event, your registration fee will be refunded (less a $50 administration fee). If you withdraw less than 30 days before the event, no refund will be made. Donated sponsorship funds are non-refundable.
