Recently received an email from the organizers noting that this half marathon in Canberra is on again: Sunday March 18, 7.30am.

It's a lovely course mostly on bike path, undulating rather than hilly, not at all crowded (generally 200-300 runners), with water and sports drink sachets on course.

The information page and online entry form are here.

Thanks Ninjette,

Might do this one instead of the Orange Running Festival ... purely based on logistics.

Thanks very much.  I am sure you enjoyed it.  
This is my third Zed: 1976 260Z 2+2 and a 1985 300ZX.  I really love this one.

I enjoyed it when it was going like a bat out of hell...not so much when it was broken down on the side of the road needing an engine rebuild...

SWEET!   Such nice lines.

Yes I knew it was time to let the'85ZX go when they were going to stop selling 'super'.

We have kind of 'hyjacked' this thread but since it is just You and I ... I guess that is okay.  :)

18 March is a good date. Previously this race has been the day after Six Foot Track. This time it's the following weekend, so I'll finally be able to do it.

So which event were you training for during your run around Lake Tuggeraning today?

Heh. At the moment I'm mainly training for 6FT (I'm doing the 100 day challenge). But along the way there are various other things: the Capital Summer half marathon on 28 Jan, the Stromlo Running Festival in February and the Telstra Tower run up at the end of Feb. Not to mention the Canberra Ultra Marathon...
