Here it is. The offical (or not) 5 toughest ultra marathons in Australia.
Jimmy and Darce discuss what makes an ultra marathon tough and between them they come up with a list that they think ranks the top 5. This is highly contentious, contains loose as criteria and probably blatant disregard to some really tough ultras in Aus.
Once the Top 5 is settled, Jim provides some great information about a really important piece of work he is doing to help eradicate child exploitation through Project Rescue Children and Op Unicorn.
