Crew and pacers
Every runner needs a dedicated crew of at least two people, at least one able to pace, and one registered support vehicle used from start to finish; 4WDs are strongly recommended, vans up to the size of a long-wheelbase Toyota HiAce are allowed and campervans are not. Crews leapfrog roughly 5 km at a time, park completely off the road with hazard lights or a roof light on, and may drive no faster than 40 km/h while supporting. No crew support is allowed before Towamba (24 km). Pacers may join after Checkpoint 4 (106.7 km), or after sunset if the runner has not yet reached it. Pacing is compulsory on three sections: exactly one crew pacer on the Big Jack Mountain ascent (57.3–64.1 km) and on Beloka Hill (162–165 km), both keeping left, and at least one on the Summit Path from Charlotte Pass to Mount Kosciuszko and back (222–240 km). Pacers may carry food, drink and gear but may never push, pull or physically support the runner, and they wear the same light, vest and headlamp as runners.
