The Bloody Long Walk – 35km Challenge to Cure Mito

The Bloody Long Walk is a 35km challenge owned and operated by the Mito Foundation. Walk, jog or run and enjoy spectacular scenery whilst raising vital funds to help find cures for mitochondrial disease (mito).

Mito is a debilitating and potentially fatal genetic disorder that impairs the body's ability to convert food into the energy needed to power muscles and major organs; 1 in 200 people are at risk of developing mito. One Australian child born each week suffers a severe or life-threatening form of mito making it the second most commonly diagnosed serious genetic disease after cystic fibrosis.

Start at the beautiful Coolum Beach and head south around the base of Mount Coolum. As the sun rises, enjoy the views through Twin Waters, following the beautiful Maroochy River through the Alex Forest conservation area. Take the last steps of your 35km challenge at the stunning Mooloolaba Beach.

Fully supported course with checkpoints and refreshments.
