XPD - "As much an expedition as a race"
- 13 years ago
XPD is Australia’s own expedition length adventure race. Up to 60 teams of four from Australia and overseas will trek, mountain bike, kayak, sail and snorkel to complete this world renowned expedition. Edition 3 of XPD will take competitors through “Reef, Rainforest and Outback” on their 700km journey. They will experience the majestic Whitsunday Islands, lush highland rainforests and the harsh Queensland outback.
XPD is open to mixed, all male or all female teams of four. The exact course is kept secret until 24hrs before the start. Then with much excitement and anticipation, teams are provided a course booklet and their race maps. The course booklet contains the location of each of the race checkpoints. Once teams start, racing is 24 hours per day; teams choose when and where they will sleep. The winning team is expected to complete the course in 4-5 days. All other teams will be permitted up to 10 days to complete the expedition with no mid-race cut offs. XPD will be challenging for first time racers and experienced teams alike.
