There’s six options to choose from in the Great Barrier Reef Marathon. The gruelling 74 kilometre Ultramarathon is the most challenging course available. It’s recommended for runners who can complete a standard marathon in five hours. The three longest marathon courses each contain a lot of mixed gradients, and all with outstandingly picturesque backdrops: sugarcane fields, Four Mile Beach, valleys, rivers, creeks and rainforest. The tropical climate is also another element for competitors to contend with, along with other natural elements such as cassowaries, snakes, leeches and so on, to watch out for.
At Balboa Apartments Port Douglas you can unwind and barbeque your dinner on your own private balcony. Kick back with a cool drink, or relax around the relaxing solar heated saltwater pool. A plunge in the pool is a refreshing way to cool down and loosen those muscles. Take a stroll from your apartment to Four Mile Beach for a swim, lounge on the sand, or stroll along the coast.
