Glass House Standing
Coochin Creek, Australia • 31 Dec 2025
The Glass House Standing is a unique Backyard Ultra running event held at the base of Wild Horse Mountain in the Glasshouse Mountains, Sunshine Coast, Australia. Participants race to complete a challenging 6.7km loop within each hour, starting at 5 PM on December 31, 2025. The race continues hourly, testing runners' endurance, resilience, and strategy, as they must return to the start line before the next loop begins. The last runner to complete a loop alone is declared the winner. The event supports the "Save Our Glasshouse Mountains" campaign, with profits aiding conservation efforts to protect this iconic natural landmark.
