Support on the route includes covered rest stops approximately every 12.5 km, with larger marquee stops about every 25 km. Rest stops provide catering, seating, changing areas, medical and welfare tents, and massage and podiatry services. Snacks and drink stops occur every 12.5 km, meals are provided about every 25 km, and dietary requirements are catered for. A timing system scans participants at rest stops and progress is monitored by a control room. Route marking uses pink arrows and glow-sticks at night, and Google route maps and GPS tracking are available through the event app.
Camping is available near the mid-point (around 50 km) for the two-day 100 km option and for 50 km participants, with showers and chill-out areas.
