The Course

Running the Out'N'Back 50

The Out'N'Back 50 takes you from town out onto Hinterland trail and back again, showing off diverse terrain, mountain lookouts and Noosa's Biosphere Trail network with a manageable 900m of climbing across the full distance.

It is a genuinely accessible ultra distance, rewarding steady aerobic effort, smart pacing on the return leg, and consistent fuelling across a 5 to 8 hour day.

The Course Demands

What the race asks of you

Over 18 weeks we build the aerobic durability, pacing discipline and fuelling skill needed to run strong on the way out and hold form on the way back.

Aerobic Durability

Steady long runs and progressive volume build the aerobic base to cover 50km of varied Hinterland terrain with confidence.

Pacing the Return Leg

Out-and-back courses reward restraint on the way out. Sessions train pacing discipline so the return half feels strong, not survived.

Heat + Fuelling

Queensland conditions and a 5 to 8 hour effort call for practised hydration and fuelling, rehearsed well before race day.

Race-Day Confidence

Mandatory gear, aid station strategy and pacing plans are trained specifically, so nothing feels unfamiliar on the day.
