Athletes need to be aware that at times they may be sharing Stewart Street, Grant Street and Clarence Street with cyclists.

Athletes exit the transition marquee in the “horseshoe”section of Horton Street beside the Town Green and make an immediate left turn onto the paved area and proceed across towards the river staying within the barricaded chute and veer left and continue within the Town Green running parallel to the river and beside the other run chute which takes runners heading along to the Breakwall and Town Beach.

At the end of the Town Green runners will make an immediate left turn onto the end of Short Street and proceed up to Clarence Street for a right turn onto the roadway and continue down to the end of Clarence Street and turn left and proceed along past the Fisherman’s Co-op and across the bottom of the car park and continue behind the Food for Less supermarket and then turn right onto Buller Street.

Crossing the bridge runners then turn right into Hollingworth Street and proceed through the car park beside the Waters Edge Motel and then turn left onto the pathway behind the motel.  Follow the pathway into and through Westport Park past the bowling club and just before the playground veer left and follow the pathway towards Park Street and then veer right still along the footpath and head towards Sails resort.

At the intersection on Park Street where the bike course started (entrance road to the boat ramp) runners will be directed onto and along Park Street and are to ensure they keep between the traffic cones and the gutter but at all times being aware of runners who may be coming towards them. They will continue on the road along Park Street through the roundabout at Bay Street and then continue all the way and onto Settlement Point Road to the turnaround at approximately residence #152 which is a few hundred metres before the Ferry at Settlement Point.  Athletes will be required to run on the eastern (resident) side on the way out and back being aware of any vehicles which may be travelling on the water side.

After the turn runners continue back towards Westport Park on the same course but at some stages they will be directed to run on the footpath and not the road especially from Settlement Point Rd back onto Park Street.  At the intersection/ roadway entrance to the boat ramp area where the bike course started, athletes will turn left and proceed along the roadway and then onto the pathway within Westport Park and proceed back past the bowling club, behind the motel and up onto Buller Street across the bridge left behind the supermarket across the car park to the bottom of Clarence Street. At the bottom of Clarence Street  the course continues straight along past the wharves and onto the pathway back into the Town Green and continues on the pathway beside the river and past the finish chute entrance then to, and along, the Breakwall. Before reaching the end of the Breakwall just past the caravan park runners turn right and continue on that pathway to and through the first Town Beach car park and proceed straight up the first roadway and at the top turn right onto Stewart Street.  Proceeding  along Stewart Street and turning  right onto Grant Street then veering right through the car park and then left onto Clarence Street. Runners continue down Clarence Street on the road but just past the Hay Street intersection athletes will be directed onto the footpath to enable them to make a right turn at Horton Street into the “horseshoe” (at the Hotel corner) and continue still on the pathway to complete lap 1 at the run start beside the Transition marquee.

Athletes complete laps 2, 3 and 4 along the same course.

At the completion of lap 4 athletes continue back down the chute towards  the river as if starting another lap and continue out of the Town Green, left onto the end of Short Street  then  right at Clarence Street and again down to the end of Clarence Street but at the bottom of Clarence Street they will turn RIGHT and continue again past the wharves and back into the Town Green.  Once on the Town Green athletes will be directed into the Finish Chute near the main wharf to complete the event at the finish line beside Rydges hotel.
