Our NSW course is run at Dargle Farm, on the Hawkesbury River in Lower Portland. Not far from Sydney, this True Grit course moves through a varying property of grasslands, temperate rainforest, dense swamps, granite escarpments and towering sandstone cliffs. Not only do we hold our True Grit event here, but also our OCR World Championship 24hr Enduro course on the same property.

To enter as an Elite, you must select the 'Elite' wave at 8.30am on the Saturday of the event weekend. This will be the first wave out of the gate to kick off the event, and the top ten times of the event will be recorded at the finish line. Top 3 of both male and female will place on the podium for our event and will receive a prize at our presentations (typically around 10am). Elites get first access to the course, before it's been muddied up too much by everyone else! Our Elites do have a burpee penalty of 20 burpees for every obstacle failed or not attempted. There is a 'mystery' obstacle for our Elite wave only on each course - to be revealed the morning of the event at your briefing at the Start line.
Take on the True Grit course as an individual by entering in any wave time on either the Saturday or Sunday (aside from the 8.30am Saturday wave). Just because you're taking on the course solo does not mean you're alone - anyone out on course is able to help you and there are no penalties for failing or skipping any obstacles.
Enter as a team to take on the True Grit course together and make a day of it! We love to see some team t-shirts or group costumes out on course... and they always make for great pictures! Don't want to take on a particular obstacle? Don't worry! There's no penalty for any failed or missed obstacle with True Grit.
True Grit events are designed to test both physical and mental grit. You should cross train in both lower body endurance and upper body strength. All obstacles are designed to be completed at a basic level of fitness
We strongly recommend long pants, or leggings and long socks to make your course comfortable and provide protection. Running or hiking shoes are sufficient to attempt the course. Keep clothing light, as you are guaranteed to warm up during the course. Water bladders are a good way to keep rehydrated.
Parking provided for $10 per vehicle.
Special areas for mini-buses and coaches.
