2026 16 hour challenge Puckapunyal

Why am I fundraising?

The Puckapunyal Military Area is hosting a 16-Hour Endurance Challenge, where participants will test their physical limits by covering the greatest possible distance within their chosen discipline. Events include a 20kg weight-loaded march, running, rower, and bike erg. This endurance challenge is a powerful demonstration of a soldier’s physical and mental resilience. It serves not only as a testament to the strength and determination of our personnel but also as a tribute to those who have served before us and those who continue to serve today. The event will raise funds for Legacy, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting the families of deceased and injured service men and women. Legacy was founded from a promise made on the battlefields of World War I—“to look after the missus and the kids.” Today, Legacy continues to honour that commitment by providing essential services to the families of veterans. By supporting the 16-Hour Endurance Challenge, you are directly contributing to the ongoing care and wellbeing of veterans’ families—both now and into the future. NOTE; Just a reminder when donating, to donate on your team page (not individually). This is to track the donations within our legacy page!
