2025 was the last edition of DownUnder135 as we know it.

The time has come for us to take a break from choreographing our wonderful event.
​
​There are a multitude of factors contributing to our decision, however we no longer feel we have the capacity to continue producing the event we want, at the standard we want.

We are very proud of the event we have built and the service we have provided the Australian ultra endurance community over the last nine years.
​
Some of our highlights we are most proud of include:
- Five star aid stations
- Artistic level course design on unique terrain
- A-class full medical coverage
- Volunteer passion and commitment that maximizes entrant experience
- A 55 hour non stop single stage 220km event
- Keeping our prices and entrant number low ensuring athletes got an experience they would never forget
- Extremely high value for money experience


For now, this is farewell, but perhaps not goodbye....

Kindly
Tom Cullum, Dale Chircop, Dion Milne, Anthony Beyer & Warren Waynard

DownUnder135
is one of the Southern Hemisphere's
​Gnarliest Foot Races

DownUnder135 is an authentically challenging ultra endurance foot race, designed by the race committee to provide the Australian ultra community with an experience like no other. 

DownUnder135 is created by 5 mates who have shown and proven in its first 6 editions that DU135 is one of the gnarliest, super demanding and extreme foot races offered anywhere in Australia. Covering 135 miles (220 km) single stage non-stop from start to finish, competitors will adventure across the single trails of the Lerderderg State Forest in Victoria located only 55km west of the Melbourne Airport and CBD. 

DU135 is the race where the cliché of 'finding my limits' can genuinely be enacted. The race is not just about finishing. Most starters understand the enormity of the challenge in front of them and appreciate the race for what it gives them..... A chance to find their limits.

This race is not for the athlete who has an ego about their DNF rate.  
Making it to half way, you will still achieve 110km and 6500m+ of vert. These numbers alone (on paper) equate to the hardest 100km race in the nation.
