It was a very early start making the drive up to the start line in Memorial Park at The Entrance.
On arrival, I met up with Cameron Griffiths who had mentioned the race to me and put the idea in my head. It was also amazing to meet up with the same guy Craig, who I met in the final stages of the Great Australian Run in Melbourne only a few days earlier.
It was like two world's colliding when I started to realise on starting the race that Craig, had previously presented a sales training session at a Sales Conference many years previous in Darwin and was also a good friend of a former girlfriend... Incredible!
The run was very low key with a small field of true believers from a number of running clubs represented and Cool Running members heading out along the river over many small bridges with not too many locals to be seen on the course. It was interesting to note that the water tasted a little like chlorine and it was just so sweet to have the final run for the year completed!
Following the event it was great to meet up with Craig and family and fellow runners Anna and Hellen for breakfast prior to making the journey back down the F3 Highway to Sydney.
