“Our variation of last man standing leaves no man behind, as long as you can endure the 10 hours you can beat the event. Its all about getting your head in the right place and keeping moving.”
Fortitude challenges participants to push their mental and physical boundaries in a unique endurance event where the goal is to conquer the clock, the course, and oneself. With a focus on perseverance and personal achievement, this event celebrates every participant’s journey in overcoming obstacles, pacing strategically, and enduring together.
The rules of Fortitude itself are relatively simple. You will be awarded your medal and coloured finishers shirt based on your ability to complete 10 laps of our roughly 3mile, 4mile or 5mile loops in the given time.
You can change down distance at any time based on how the day is going but you must complete all 10 laps and return to the race village within each hour. Your finishing grade is determined by your shortest of the 10 laps – not total mileage.
The Blue loop is a fantastic starting point because as long as you dig deep, get your mindset and keep moving you can complete the event by either walking or running. The Black course on the other extreme provides a tough challenge for even the hardest of ultra runners. The red course sits somewhere in the middle.

WHAT MAKES FORTITUDE SPECIAL
MEET THE RACE DIRECTOR
A late comer to sport it wasn’t till my late teens I found a passion for fitness spending a large amount of time between various martial arts and the gym. A chance conversation about Ironman led to me signing up for my first endurance events and before long I was spending large amounts of my time training and racing. From that passion I launched Fullsteam to deliver on my desire to provide those same high quality experiences I’ve enjoyed and pass on what I’ve learned. Fortitude has rapidly grown to become one of my favourite events I manage, the perfect combinations of community spirit and brutal challenge.
