CSB - Tom O’Brien - The Revenant - The Country Sport Breakfast

The Revenant - find your limits, then go again...

‘A true challenge is when failure is the most likely outcome.’

The unofficial motto of the Revenant serves both as an invitation, and a warning.

The Revenant is an unsupported individual or two-person team Ultra Adventure Run covering more than 190km and about 16,000m of vertical ascent if you navigate it perfectly. There’s no support crew to supply fresh socks, a warm cuppa or a much needed energy-boosting snack. 

It’s held each year at Welcome Rock on Blackmore Station, in Northern Southland, perched majestically high above the old world charm of Garston - an area rich in goldrush history. Early settlers named it Welcome Rock as they used it as a meeting and trading point.
