Courses
There will be four maps in this event

4.Expert: Any number of the short loops from the Beginner course (3 x ~2km) plus an additional longer loop (~3km) taking you all the way to the Gladstone Secondary School portion of the map.
Safety Precautions:
Sunset is at 9:05pm. No headlamp required!
There are a few road crossings. This is a WET and there is no reason to take any risks. Please be careful.
You may want to run in trail shoes, but no spikes.
