Race Information
The Surf Coast Century is a spectacular 50km and 100km ultra-marathon race for solo runners and relay teams in the Surf Coast and Great Ocean Road region.
All runners undertake a magnificent journey below towering sea cliffs, along remote beaches and through extensive wildflower hinterland that leaves you breathless for the beauty of the area as much as for the exertion of the exercise!
The event is highly regarded by experienced ultra-runners (the course is fast!), but more importantly has a great reputation for those tackling their first ultra-marathon by not being too difficult or technical. The course is accessible, with several support services, easy race logistics (start and finish in Anglesea) and an incredible event vibe generated by supporters, runners and officials.
