In July 2024 the second Mad Max Marathon Running Festival will be held in Broken Hill, NSW after a successful inaugural event in 2023.
The course route carves its way through the heart of a shutdown Flinders Chase National Park. Runners are inspired by post-bushfire regenerating flora and fauna, undulating roads and trails, an exposed coastal section with views to the powerful Southern Ocean and a boardwalk leading to the iconic Remarkable Rocks. The race format encourages a spirit of camaraderie amongst runners as they pass by each other throughout the day. (It's on road, but the scenery - and elevation - is more like a trail run. )
