"Now that I’ve browsed the AFR (a breakfast routine hangover from COVID) it’s time to write about perfection. I’ve been avoiding this for two weeks as the storyline hasn’t evolved in my head beyond one word ‘flow’. The story unfolds in Paynesville, Gippsland during X-Marathon Nargun and the Lakes Edition 2021."- Eibhlin Fletcher, team BUFFalos, second place finisher.
Eibhlin is a leadership and team coach, and founder of Get A Grip of the Grind. She’s an avid adventure racer and endurance athlete that uses her experiences to enhance the performance of leaders and teams.

Read moreAfter restrictions finally lifted, teams were at last able to get a much needed challenge that took them on a voyage through the wilderness of East Gippsland.

Each team is comprised of four competitors which will be racing against the clock through the East Gippsland’s most remote backcountry terrain exploring the Victorian largest free flowing river, the biggest inland lakes system, untouched rainforests and mystical legends.

We encourage anyone with a craving for fresh air, great company, racing excitement to join us again and experience the friendly social atmosphere, scenic terrain and magical wilderness together!
Registrations are well under way for X-Marathon 2021, Nargun and the Lakes edition. Two epic courses (Full and Half) have been designed to accommodate all levels of adventurers. Both courses have 36 hours cut-off times with the Full course the more technical, being more physically and navigationally demanding. The winners are expected to finish within 24 hours
Teams will navigate through challenging terrain between checkpoints using only maps supplied by race organisers and compass. You won’t be totally on your own as spectators will be able to follow each team on-line via a live tracking system that will showcase all teams’ progress during the event.
Read moreHave you contemplated the challenge of doing an off-road Multisport race, but the thought of giving up all your free time for training holds you back? Or perhaps, you’re an experienced triathlete, having completed many different triathlon races but lack off-road skills?
