certainly one of the best races on the calendar. A top weekend away, great course & well organised. I'm running in the Sunshine Coast marathon on Aug 26th so Im hoping I pull up ok to compete again at Forster this year.

[Kookaburra]

A thoroughly enjoyable course and certainly scenic, but unfortunately this year I have elected to go to Canberra for the Canberra Times run.

[petercamilleri]

A slight change in the course, - still one of the most scenic courses......................just a bit quicker !

Enjoyed the Port Macquarie Half earlier this year, so I'm looking forward to this run as well!

This will be my 1st half marathon... Am looking forward to it.

[petercamilleri]

You couldn't of picked a more beautiful run course Mark !!!

[MarkNorthcott]

Thanks Peter. I'm looking forward to it...

I have a couple of 10km's to warm into it one in 2 weeks at Hunter Valley, then the 10.5km run at Lake Macquarie.

Can only get to that start line and start putting one foot infront of the other hey.

My wife and I are travelling up from Melbourne to the 10km and are really looking forward to it!

[petercamilleri]

We have the weather turned on beautifully for you !

[MickyC]

Thanks Peter for putting on such a great event.  It was the first fun run that my wife and I have done in years and we both had a brilliant time.

A great course and just the right size field (in the 10K that we did) and wow what fantastic weather!

We are already planning our trip for next year!

Now I really need to start doing some more running.  The 10KM really hurt and the Melbourne half is fast approaching!!

I finished my 1st half 1:58 after suffering gastro the day before I was lucky to even run. Struggled to eat post run though
Couple of days and all good now

For those of you who ran the half I may have pics of you my mate was taking pics with my gear. And after seeing cost of the guy who was taking the images. Hit me up and I'll see what I have.
