The Track Australia

THE TRACK Australia is a 520-km, 10-day self-supported running challenge in the Australian Outback. The route runs in the Northern Territory, from Alice Springs toward Uluru, with the first half through West MacDonnell National Park and the second toward Finke Gorge and finally Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, in Aboriginal Anangu country. Runners traverse pebble and sandy tracks and some single-track terrain, with daily temperatures ranging from 20–30°C by day to 5–10°C at night. Participants must carry their own food for 10 days; water is provided at checkpoints while organizers mark the course. Finishing near Uluru, the race blends wild scenery with a pioneer spirit.
