Training plan for the Six Foot Track Marathon
Saturday, 13 March 2027 in Katoomba, Australia. That is 16 weeks away.
When a build would have to start
OLTRA plans a block of a length that suits the distance, then works backwards from race day. For this one:
50K — a 20-week build, 5 runs a week
Not enough room left for the full build.
Too close? The next one
The organiser runs this the second Saturday in March, which puts the 2028 race on Saturday, 11 March 2028. That date is not announced yet, so check it before planning to it — but a 50K build for it would start the week of 18 October 2027.
On the day
One distance: 50K. Entries, course and timings are sixfoot.com’s. They decide when entries open and close, and whether the race runs at all — OLTRA sells nothing here and takes nothing from them.
The date here is the one the organiser published, rechecked every 1 hour against the list. Confirm it on their site before you enter.
