The course is marked for night running with reflective orange and silver flagging tape approximately every 250 m, red directional arrows at intersections, red crosses to indicate wrong routes, and additional signs indicating upcoming turns.

Mandatory gear includes a mobile phone with emergency contacts, a visible race bib, a water bottle or hydration pack with at least 500 ml capacity, a compression bandage and a headlight or suitable torch. Recommended items include a drinking cup, insect repellent and bite and sting treatment.

Support crews are permitted only at the start and finish area; no crews are allowed on the course. Drop bags are available for marathon runners and can be accessed after each lap. Entries close on 24 January and there are no entries on the day. Refunds are available until 18 January 2027 subject to a $30 administration fee. All finishers receive an event memento.
