08:30am | WHY THE CHANGES IN 2010? Our number one objective when looking at course design and scheduling is to ensure every participant, in every event has the best possible on course experience. For Marathon and Westpac Half Marathon runners we know this means a clear run with people going at similar speeds, and clear access to aid stations on course. We are very confident this has been achieved with the above revised scheduling for 2010. For those with concerns please note the following:
Upon exit of Kings Park there will be a lane exclusive to the Half Marathon and Marathon participants. The lane will be a physical divide that can not be crossed by the mass field, the lane will continue on to Thomas Street up to the Barker Road turn. From this point Marathon and Westpac Half Marathon participants will be on the left hand lanes of the course right through to the finish with a physical divide from the mass 12km field the entire way. We are also taking care of our 12km runners with varying start categories in the Channel Nine 12km Run. These will be inforced by mustering all participants on the Esplanade. |
