The 2010 Kokoda Challenge – a grueling 96km run/walk/crawl through the most rugged terrain possible in the Gold Coast Hinterland – has been run and won.
Check out the informative video from Scott Whimpey, a member of Team Nike Hammer who completed the course in a record time of 11 hours 48 minutes.
Scott has a first aid training business on the Gold Coast and is an elite athlete – a great guy to get advice from on one of the most grueling endurance events in Australia.

Hi Scott, fantastic listening to your tips on Kokoda Challenge. I am a very fit 54 yr old woman, but am wondering if age would be a factor in this challenge. If I enter it I intend to prepare well and certainly follow some of your tips but would like your opinion re: age being a factor. Also what type of boot did you wear, hiking or trail running shoes?
