There are six major indigenous groups in Oceania: Aboriginal Australians, Papuans, Austronesians, Melanesians, Micronesians, and Polynesians, based on the island cluster on which each group lives.
Oceania is the smallest continent in the world in terms of land area.
Te Araroa FKT - Brooke Thomas

Bluff, New Zealand
In November 2020 Brooke Thomas set off from NZ’s northernmost point, Cape Reinga, to run the 3000km length of New Zealand along the Te Araroa Trail. It had been on her bucket list since she received a pacemaker 10 years before. At 22, she’d had to give up her rowing career due to her heart condition, ‘‘so I kind of feel like I’ve got unfinished business with sport’’. She completed the challenge in 57 days and 10 hours, setting a new record as the fastest woman on the Te Araroa Trail. “It’s not an easy running track. There are times...
Run around Australia - Andre Jones

THE PLAN“An ordinary bloke that still continues doing the extraordinary – having successfully completed my 3,700km solo run from Melbourne to Darwin, I’m now expanding my horizons – a 15,000km solo run around Australia – ‘Melbourne to Melbourne’ – taking about 345 days (and lots of photos and videos). I believe this is a world first! Although almost a dozen people have done it, no one on record has yet run solo around Australia. (solo, as in no back-up crew to assist each day).The custom-made buggy Intrepid II, will hold 80-100kgs of food and supplies. (this will include 60 litres...
Running the length of New Zealand - Anna McNuff

Cape Reinga, New Zealand
Anna was never anything like those ‘real’ runners on telly – all spindly limbs, tiny shorts and split times – but when she read about New Zealand’s 3,000-kilometer-long (1,911 miles) Te Araroa Trail, she began to wonder… perhaps being a ‘real’ runner was overrated. Maybe she could just run it anyway? Traveling alone through New Zealand’s backcountry for 148 days, she scrambled through forests, along ridge-lines, over mountain passes, along beaches and across swollen rivers. Running up to 52 kilometers in a day, she slept wild most nights and was taken into the homes and hearts of the kiwi people...

Melbourne, Australia
Janette Murray-Wakelin was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2001 and was told she had 6 months to live. This challenge prompted her to make choices that changed her life forever. The lifestyle choices she made with the support of her husband Alan, set them both on a journey to optimal health. They started following a raw vegan lifestyle and turned into fit veteran ultra-endurance runners whose life has improved tremendously, not only physically, but also mentally and emotionally. To inspire and motivate conscious lifestyle choices, to promote kindness and compassion for all living beings and to raise environmental awareness for...
