All races finish at the Race HQ, located at Tathra Surf Life Saving Club (6 Andy Poole Drive). The courses feature trails through coastal forests, sections along beaches, and clifftop paths with ocean views. The event is cupless, meaning athletes must carry their own cup or bottle for refills at aid stations. Compulsory equipment, including items like a mobile phone, whistle, and emergency blanket, is required and checked before the race.

Entry fees vary by distance and registration period, with a one-day special, super early bird, early bird, standard, and full price tier. The event includes a finisher's token, aid station support, and electronic timing. Age categories are available for all distances, with minimum age requirements ranging from 10 to 18 years.
