- 102 km Hybrid: 60 km plus marathon for combined distance
- 60 km trail ultra along the Great South West Walk
- 30 km coastal trail run, newly introduced

The 60 km trail follows coastal sections of the Great South West Walk and is almost entirely single track with some beach sections. The half marathon uses the second half of the marathon course. The 30 km event was added to provide an intermediate coastal trail option. The marathon is in its 35th year and is noted as one of the older road marathons in Victoria.
