The Club's ninth annual 42.2km Marathon Walk returned to a Harbourside course this year. We walked from Manly to St Leonards, via most of the bays and headlands. There were a record 11 starters, and eight of them were still going strong towards the end. An undisciplined breakaway group took a shortcut to the finishing line, and thus clocked up a mere 41km and instant disqualification. So only four official finishers. Well done all of you though!

As one of the undisciplined breakaway group I'd like to respectfully point out that the tracker of a long-standing club member and highly experienced bushwalker clocked us at 43.4km as we sat in the pub, out of the rain, with our very welcome drinks and food, waiting for the slower part of the group to finish!  Thanks Nick for organising a great day enjoyed by all.
