8,12 or 24 hr Trail Run Relay or solo

Solo or relay teams of 2, 4 or 6 people completing as many 5km trail laps as possible (non-stop) in either 8, 12 or 24 hours.

Woohoo! Lets go! Just over a week now for the 2026 Rage Against Riverhead 8,12 or 24hr Relay or Solo Trail Run which is on 21 November 2026.

Get a team together for our party in Riverhead Forest where teams of 2-6 people or solo peeps do 8,12 or 24 hours running/walking as many laps of a cool 5km trail loop in Riverhead Forest as they can, in the chosen time frame. None of this silly stopping and starting every hour Backyard Ultra nonsense! You’ll just keep running or walking to clock up as many laps as possible.

Come set up a tent with a team of between 2-6 of your closest friends, whanau, or work colleagues and get loopin’. Or take on the challenge of doing it solo! As you’ll have a space provided in our tent city, you can settle in with a couch, bed, excer-cycle, fondue fountain, chilly bin and get comfortable for the day!!

Need a tent setup – check out https://hisandhersevents.co.nz/ who can hire you the works – Gazebo, chair, chilly bin etc. They set it up all ready for you to move into it on the day.

This will be a big forest-y party. And we’ll be encouraging a festive atmosphere. We encourage dress ups and general crazy behaviour (keep it socially appropriate, but). The trail winds through the tent city so you tag your next teammate right outside your tent. You decide how many laps people run, in what order, or what sequence i.e. a person may choose to run four laps then hand over the baton….it’s up to you!!

Obviously, we’re not savages, we’ll have a coffee van and BBQ set up to keep you fed and caffeinated, as well as music to keep things pumping.
