Where Rumble in the Jungle Half Marathon starts and finishes

Rumble in the Jungle Half Marathon starts at Eastern Dorrigo Community Hall, 13 Pine Avenue, Ulong, NSW, 2450. We haven't been able to place those on a map accurately enough to show one — a pin in the wrong place is worse than no pin.

These are the start and finish points, not the route. Verus doesn't hold course files for this race, and drawing a line between two pins would be a guess you might end up training on.

Full Rumble in the Jungle Half Marathon Route Breakdown

Rumble in the Jungle starts and finishes at the Eastern Dorrigo Community Hall in Ulong, sending runners into the rainforest of Bindarri National Park on a mix of forest roads, management trails and rainforest singletrack. The longer distances pass real course landmarks including Bangalore Falls, Urumbilum Falls, the Mt Wondurrigah lookout and Battery Falls, with the 100km's remote back section featuring a steep descent to "The Confluence", where the Bobo River meets the Little Nymboida River. Elevation climbs from around 165m of gain on the 8km up to roughly 3,000m on the full 100km, so distances get progressively more technical and demanding. Expect creek crossings, fern-lined gullies and genuine wilderness underfoot, all supported from the community hall as a friendly, well-organised base.

Training Strategy for Rumble in the Jungle Half Marathon

Standard Training Window

10-14 weeks is a solid window for a first half marathon; 8-10 weeks is enough if you're already maintaining a baseline mileage. Build your long run up gradually rather than jumping straight to race distance.

Terrain Specificity

This is a largely flat course, so most of your long runs can mirror that — flat and steady, building time on feet rather than hill strength.

The Taper Phase

Reduce overall mileage across the final 7-10 days while preserving short race-pace bursts. Arrive at Eastern Dorrigo Community Hall, 13 Pine Avenue, Ulong, NSW, 2450 fresh, energized, and primed — not fit, fresh.

Pacing Execution

Lock in your target pace using the interactive splits calculator below — no official pacers are confirmed for this event, so a pace band on your watch is the more reliable option.

Fuel & Hydration Prep

Test your race-day fuel and hydration plan on your long training runs, not for the first time on race day — check the Race Day Checklist below for what's actually on this course.

Half Marathon Nutrition & Fueling Plan

2-3 Days Prior

A normal diet is fine. There is no need to carb-load for a race of this length.

Race Morning

Eat a carbohydrate-focused breakfast two to three hours before the start, and stick to something you've already tested in training rather than trying anything new.

On-Course Fueling

Fluid at the on-course stations is usually enough; some runners take a single gel around the hour mark.

Post-Race Recovery

A mix of carbohydrate and protein in the hour or so after finishing supports recovery.
