FERAL PIG ULTRA NOV 2nd 2024 - 100 Miler, 100k, 50 Miler, 50k, 23k, 5k (kids)

You may have heard of Feral and you want to be bold,
We know it will be hot cos it’s never bloody cold!
Once a year this event comes around for us all
Is now the time for you to stand up and be tall?

So you’re new to the trails and you want to explore,
You’ve seen parts of the hills and you want to see more.
You’re an old hand at  trails and you need a new test,
You want climbs, you want trails and views that are best.

Your inner Feral is calling and you want to commit,
If you want epic and challenging, then this is legit.
The Pork Chop at 23k is great for a start,
The stairs and the climbs will raise the beat of your heart.

The Sow 50k is cruel with the midday sun,
You start at noon which sounds not so much fun.
But as the day progresses and the sun starts to fall,
The views and colours through the valleys are the best of them all.

Or is the Boar 50 Miler calling your name?
Are you crazy or weird or just a little insane?
You run all through the day from dawn to sunset,
At 80 odd k this could be your longest run yet!

But why stop at 80 when there’s the 100k Wild Swine,
You get to pass twice through that teasing finish line!
But that bonus few k going past the weir,
Takes in magical trails and makes you earn that beer!

The pinnacle of them all is the 100 Mile Feral Pig,
They say go home or go hard, test yourself and go big.
It takes you to places heavenly and evil so be ready,
This is not for one to be arrogant, so be smart and be steady.

100 Miles on those trails takes courage and grit,
Yes, you need to be strong, but more importantly mental fit.
But that glory of the finish which has thus far only seen few
Is worth it for that finish line hug given from me to you.

Now the time has come for you to set your race plan,
Choose your distance and goals and dream like you can.
So chuck on your runners and prepare your happy dance,
Cos all we are saying is give pigs a chance.

“Feral is a place where dreams are realised. That finish line is so, so sweet.”

                                            “Feral is a place where dreams are shattered. Didn’t pay it the respect and the course bloody roasted me.”

     “Feral is iconic and part of trail running folk lore in Australia.”

                                    “Feral is a myth. I’ll be back for the third time next year to conquer this bloody thing.”

 

 

The Feral Pig Ultra on the iconic Bibbulmun Track in the Perth Hills. Always throwing up the unexpected and always testing our resolve. An iconic and world class hiking trail plays host to this ultra marathon on the first weekend of every November. It is not for the faint hearted. It requires smarts, discipline and absolute respect as this ultra marathon is isolated, brutal and will absolutely catch you out if you let down your guard.

Feral is as Feral does.
