Brisbane Kokoda Challenge: What you need to know & how to register




  • The Brisbane Kokoda Challenge will be held on June 3 and starts at 7am from Brookfield Showgrounds. The course is in D'Aguilar State Forest (course map below) and has a 9 hour time limit.

  • The Brisbane Kokoda Challenge is a team event and you must enter a team of: 2, 3 or 4. You must start and finish with all team members.  Registration costs $70 per person and you are encouraged to fund raise for your team. Having a team with people of a similar fitness level is recommended.


  • You are encouraged to begin finding a team immediately and register as soon as possible, it is expected that this event will reach capacity and we don't want anyone missing out. If you don't have a team and you would like to join with others from Drive Fitness please contact David on 0402 358 127 or dave@drivefitness.net or leave your name with your personal trainer during your next training session. There will be a sheet available at Drive Fitness studios for you to write your name and contact number if you are looking for a team. 


  • You will have to come up with a name for your team. Drive Fitness will donate $20 towards your fundraising for every team that uses Drive Fitness in the team name. This can be as simple as including "(Drive Fitness)" after your preferred name. 


  • There are 3 Checkpoints along the 30km course. There is no support crew  access at these points, participants should carry any food, water or supplies they need.


  • You must complete the waiver form and mail / fax it to the Kokoda Challenge organisers following registration and in advance of the event. The waiver form can be found in the competitors area after you have registered and logged in. Each team member needs to complete the waiver individually, NOT 1 WAIVER PER TEAM. 


  • You will be raising money for The Kokoda Challenge Youth Program.  Your contribution is helping young people to gain confidence, direction, life skills, new friends and the knowledge that anything is possible


  • If you have a team ready to go you can proceed with the registration by following this link: Brisbane Kokoda Resgistration 2012. You will need all team member's details to complete registration.
