Lonely Mountain Ultra

Great to be out at Orange parkrun this morning volunteering. Awesome community events like Parkrun and LMU rely so much on the assistance of volunteers. We would love you to register to volunteer at LMU 2026. Head to our website to register today!

A night out at Badlands Brewery for some course marking making. Thanks to our 11k sponsors and provider of our finish line beers for hosting us!

Sunny and stunning out on Lees Mountain this morning with a loop that included the big tree!

Meet at Pinnacle Picnic Area next Sunday 23rd August at 7am for another Try LMU Trails run. See LMU Trails on Strava for more details.

BEER AT THE FINISH LINE? NOW WE’RE TALKING

Stoked to have Badlands Brewery & Taproom onboard LMU 2026 as Race Partner of the Badlands 11K.

Even better, they’ll be pouring at the LMU Village, with a FREE Badlands beer waiting for every finisher aged 18+.🍻

And when you’re done with the mountain, head into the Badlands Taproom over race weekend to keep the celebrations rolling and the stories well embellished.

Run hard. Finish strong. Beer cold.
