The legends at have teamed up with us at to bring to life an epic event.

The Giba Gorge backyard Ultra… the race is a lay man standing type event where every hour on the hour athletes take off and run the 6.7km route within the hour. If you make it you qualify for the next lap, if you don’t, that’s your race over.

is a phenomenal venue as it offers a wide range of trails with in that 6.7km. There are some decent climbs, fun decents and epic single track.

Having onboard give us the ability to really bring a top class event. Devil peak beer offers something truly different, some truly special. There beers are well aligned with athletes who work hard and want to celebrate the victories… At Giba, we too strive to achieve special and different adventures and hence we believe teaming up with these legends we can create a top rated, limit testing, boundary pushing adventure orientated race.

So get you entries in and enjoy the magnificent race we have planned!

It is a real tester with 320m climbing in the first 4km, and then a lovely run downhill back home. These events have one purpose and that is to promote the epic trails and route in the Giba park. There are steep climbs, waterfall, perfect single track and switch backs to name a few epic elements the park offers… There is a 9,5km and 4km route so come join us tomorrow night at 18:00 to enjoy the steep climbs, epic views and smooth single track.

The night run was a great little success - next exciting race is our doggie dash virtual event on Sunday 19 September 2021. As you can see, Riggs is frothing for the event and has been in some serious train so we both looking forward to the challenge from the other trail dogs…

Route Recce completed this morning and the only information you need to know about the night run tomorrow is that 8km is more like 9.3km. Other than that the route is super Lekker. 4km follow direction arrows and red reflective tape and 9km follows arrows and yellow reflective tape. The route is a good tester with the first 5km being all uphill… but the single track home makes you forget about the climbing and just enjoy the flow. Don’t forget headlamps as there are lots of rocks and trees to hop around and over. This is trail running!!! See you tomorrow 5pm for registration, race starts 18:10
