Hi all, this is a map of the new start and finish from the start of the honey eater stairs to the start/finish line. This is different from previous years as we now go up and down the man st instead of around the back of Paterson way. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out.

Have done a course check on the weekend (with just under 1 month togo) and all looking good. A video the course is below for the 28km,(also showing the change of the course towards the finish) obviously the 56 is the same track but starting at the finish line and going out and back. If you have any questions please reach out via email or ph.
Hope to see you all there.
