The organisers recommend participants are fit to compete and have sought medical advice where appropriate, and advise taking steps to remain hydrated.
The event course is clearly marked and timed with electronic race bibs. In the event of bushfire, severe weather or other factors beyond the club's control the event may be cancelled; entry fees are non-refundable.
