he tenth edition of this annual multi-hour Adelaide running festival will be held over the weekend of July 14-15.

The 6 Hour turns 10 this year (the 12 Hour and 24 Hour nine and eight years respectively) so we will be celebrating the only way we know how: to tread the same 2200m loop that has seen many great individual performances since 2009, as well as dozens of individual struggles fought. These struggles haven’t always been won, but everyone has come out the other side a more learned runner or walker for it.

This year we also have the honour of being the Australian 24 Hour Championships, so we look forward to welcoming those who want to competitively pit themselves against the clock. The Kouros Cup awaits the victors.

And amongst all the goings on, we will have three gentleman who have attended each of these events over the past ten years. Rest assured their achievements won’t go uncelebrated!

So if this will be your first time or your tenth time, we welcome fast and slow, young and old, left of centre and off the charts. It’s a great weekend out and one of the very few events where you get to choose where your finish line is.
