The North Face 100 is set for 15th & 16th May 2010.

Entries are now open!

The highly-anticipated 100km endurance running test-piece, staged in heart of the rugged and spectacular Blue Mountains National Park, is set to return. Lock it in the calendar, lace-up your running shoes, it’s time to start training!

For the third consecutive year, The North Face invites runners of all kinds to step up and take on one of the toughest running events of the year, The North Face 100. An event that is certainly not for the faint hearted, or only elite runners, but is open to all those brave and willing enough to submit their selves to the ultimate endurance running challenge.

A glance over the starting line of The North Face 100 reveals a mixed bag of runners from ultra-marathon aficionados in search of the ultimate test-piece, to seasoned road marathoners making the transition to off-road trails, and probably the biggest bunch of all - recreational runners with an adventurous spirit, a desire to explore their personal limits, and achieve something incredible.

With a 2009 record time of 10 hours, 22 minutes and 51 seconds held by Blue Mountains local Andrew Lee, the bar has been set, and talk of a sub-10hr race record in 2010 is spreading. Now is the time to lace-up and prepare to tackle The North Face 100. Are you tough enough?

Endurance comes in all distances. Find yours in The North Face 100.
