The Race

Running Ultra-Trail Australia's UTA100

UTA100 is the race every Australian trail runner aspires to at least once. Starting at first light from Scenic World in Katoomba, the 101km course threads the World Heritage Blue Mountains: out along Narrow Neck and Ironpot Ridge, through the Six Foot Track, Leura Forest and Wentworth Falls, up the long Kedumba climb, and finally to the bottom of the most famous stairs in trail running, the 951 Furber Steps back up to the finish.

Held in mid-May, race day falls in the cool Blue Mountains autumn: crisp starts, mild days, and the chance of fog or mist in the valleys, with many runners out on course well into the night. It is a mix of single track, fire trail, cliff-top escarpment and lush valley, and it rewards patience, steady climbing and composure across the highs and lows of a long-course day.

Around 4,400m of climbing across 101km and a 28-hour cut-off makes this a genuine test of endurance and composure, finishing with the famous Furber Steps. This program builds exactly that, week by week.

Questions before you commit

I have never attempted a 100km before. Is this program still for me?+
Yes. This program is built for women stepping up to their first 100km as well as experienced ultra runners. The 20 weeks start with consistency and build endurance, climbing strength and back to back long efforts in the same progressive order, whatever your starting point.
What if training clashes with work, parenting or life?+
For many runners, life load changes week to week, and the program is built with that in mind. Sessions are structured around effort and purpose rather than a rigid schedule, so you can shift days when you need to and your coach can help you adjust without losing the plan.
Do I need to already be a strong runner?+
No. The first weeks are about building consistency before adding load, so the program meets you at your current fitness and progresses from there. Suitable for road to trail athletes stepping up as well as established ultra runners.
What if I get injured or need to adjust the plan?+
Reach out to your coach through the coaching platform as soon as something feels off. Training can be adapted around niggles, life load or a missed week, and the program distinguishes between normal training discomfort and pain that needs attention.
Is there support if I have questions along the way?+
Yes. Weekly live coaching calls are recorded if you cannot join live, and you can ask questions anytime through the private coaching community.
