Event Options
Most folks will enjoy the challenge of tackling the 50kms as a
test of their fitness and ability. For others however, walking
to full 50kms can be a daunting prospect, and still others
would like to make the event a family experience and
include their children - toddlers to teenagers.
Review the registration fees and fundraising pledge targets applicable to you.
Due to popular demand, we have introduced new variations of the
50km walk so that the walk options are now as follows:
50km Walk
This is the normal 50km event option that
most walkers/runners will opt for. You will be travelling the full 50kms.
50km School Students
This walk is intended
for schools wishing to enter teams of students into the walk. Your
teams will be travelling the full 50kms and your teams will consist
of at least 2 members (but can be any size). School teams can be configured as relay teams -
simply register all team members and let us know that you are
intending to configure your team as a relay team (remember that
the walking school students must always be accompanied by a
walking adult).
Family Walk
Walk the event as a family. Parents can do the full 50kms and
have their children accompany them for the first one or two
Pitstops (in prams, on bikes, or on foot). Parents can elect to
conclude their walks at either Pitstop1 or Pitstop 2 or
alternatively, have friends or family meet them to take care of
their children while they walk on and complete the full 50km. For more details on the Family walk click

Relay Walk
If the thought of walking the full 50kms seems too daunting,
then why not assemble a relay team? That way you can walk as little or as much as you feel
comfortable with. Relay teams have a maximum of 4 people in them
- and each person walking a section of the event must be
accompanied by at least one other person (for safety reasons).
In other words, a team will be made up of at least 2 or more
members, while 1 of the team 'members' may be a relay team (of
up to 4 people).
