Some Factors To Bear In Mind
Note that there are some sections along the route that only have footpath on one side of the road so choose your route carefully:
- River Rd West from Bridge St to Austin St
(northern side no path) - River Rd from Northwood Rd to Greenwich Hospital
(southern side no path) - River Rd from Canberra Ave to Duntroon Ave
(northern side no path)
Always take plenty of water.
Always let someone know you are doing this challenge and make sure they can find you on Find my iPhone or Life 360.
And the last and most obvious piece of advice is, be prepared for lots of up and downhill running!
