Challenge yourself in one of Western Australia's most iconic coastal ultra-marathons at Sandman XI on February 1, 2026, a 50km beach run starting at 2:00 AM from the Old Dunsborough boat ramp to Busselton Jetty and back. This unique race unfolds entirely on the sand, with the course line maintained within three meters of the water's edge, offering runners a magical night and sunrise experience along Geographe Bay. Participants can tackle the distance solo or as a two-person relay team, splitting the journey at the iconic Busselton Jetty for a shared adventure under the stars.
With solo entry at $70 ($60 for AUTRA members) and relay teams at $95, this event caters to seasoned ultra-runners and relay partners alike. Prepare for a breathtaking journey where you'll watch the sunset on Saturday and run through the night to greet the sunrise at 5:41 AM—a true test of endurance, rhythm, and connection with the natural elements of WA’s stunning southwest coast.
