COURSE DESCRIPTION

The start line is on the island side of the town bridge in Cohuna, near the entrance to Cohuna Recreation Reserve. The course follows Island Road 12.5km out to Burkes Bridge where the turnaround point is located. From Burkes Bridge, riders will return into town where they will cross the finish line at the town bridge. Island Road is fully bitumen and is suitable for all weather conditions. It is a windy road and riders will need to be aware of other riders using the road in both directions.

Course obstacles

All riders must be aware that there will be runners, walkers and return cyclists heading into town along Island Road. Runners in the 12.5km and half marathon events will be exiting the second oval gate and crossing the road with the assistance of marshals. Always be on the lookout for other participants and take necessary precautions to ensure your own safety and the safety of others.
