Reece Edwards

About

Reece Edwards is an Australian long and ultra-distance runner and rehabilitation physiotherapist who presents one of the most complete dual-discipline profiles in Australasian running — a 2:13:23 road marathon from Rotterdam 2021 alongside a growing collection of elite trail victories. He spent several years living and competing in the United Kingdom before returning to Australia in mid-2022, announcing himself on the trail scene that October by winning the Ultra-Trail Australia 100km on debut in 8:10:11, finishing more than eight minutes clear of the field in the Blue Mountains. His trail form was confirmed the following year with victory at the Tarawera 102km in New Zealand. He went on to win the Melbourne Marathon in 2023 and the Port Fairy Marathon in both 2024 and 2025, demonstrating the consistent year-round peak fitness that separates the elite generalist from the specialist — a consistency that reflects his physiotherapy background and the structural understanding of training load and recovery it provides. He races as part of Team Mango Boys and is affiliated with ASICS Trail.
