What a start to the day – conditions on entry to the reserve at cockatoo was fogged in and I think a lot of runners were just shivering at the sight even before getting out of the cars!! For the brave souls who ventured out into the conditions, what an experience it was. The course proved to be new and exciting with conditions such as well- fun hills, mud, puddles, creek crossings, logs and slippery forest trails.
