Grand to Grand is the most intense, surprising, intimate and exciting emotional experience and extremely challenging, brutal and satisfying physical experience any human or athlete can experience. The relationships and bonds formed during G2G are indescribable and so incredibly fulfilling.

For anyone who enjoys facing a huge physical and mental challenge amid some of the most stunningly beautiful panoramas in the world, the G2G Ultra is perfect for you. Very well organized, wonderful people in the race and volunteering, all make for a tough but never-to-be-forgotten event. I had a blast!

G2G, the body's response to the things that make you think hmmm. The toughest, most intense painstaking run that's easily recoverable.

"When we come close to those things that break us down, we touch those things that also break us open. And in that breaking open, we uncover our true nature." W.Muller. I never expected a race to have such a huge impact on my life.
- Keziah Trump, UK: G2G 2014
I join many races but have never had this sweet feeling before.
I enjoyed G2G so much - it was a lovely run.
The staff is perfectly organized, the medical team is very professional and the volunteers are very passionate.
This is definitely the best ultra marathon race.

G2G.....WOW ...epic, challenging and breathtaking....We all started out as strangers and ended the week as one big family. How lucky I have been to experience such an incredible event. I went away feeling like I had discovered just a bit more about myself and truly believe when you think you can't you really can..... Just Dream Big. Thank you everyone for making the week so special.
- Sandy Suckling, Australia, First Female, G2G 2015
I don’t know how many races I've done in my life, but I assure you that there have been many. I’ve met many organizations and many runners. But this has been one of the best organizations I've ever met. My sincere congratulations to the organization and all runners who made it possible for me to spend a few days in a place as wonderful and spectacular.

When you find yourself in a far off place and it causes you to re-think some things, you start to think that slowly you are becoming someone else. You will make the most amazing new friends and you start to think the things that have been lost on you are now as clear as a bell. If you are going through life so sure of where you are heading and you wind up lost, it’s the best thing that will ever happen to you. You will laugh, you will cry, you will be knocked down and you will get up again. You will wonder what the hell you are doing here, but nothing can ever compare to the elation of crossing that finish line. If you want to find a new you then get on that start line. What’s the worst that can happen. Oh and by the way, easy it ain’t.
