You will be able to do your run anytime between Saturday and the Wednesday cut off time to get your run time and distance to Michael (by 3pm Wednesday 20th October).
This weekend we are also having a virtual trail run starting at the Federal Falls carpark. Mitch has marked out the 12.5km track with pink ribbons although there is no guarantee they will still be there till the cutoff on Thursday.
