Get Ready for the 2010 Forest Design 3 Day Race
Race Director :- Tony Hockings
The Forest Design 3 Day Race consists of three separate runs with a total distance of 42km. Have a go at all three and complete a marathon this weekend, or you can pick and choose which run you would like to do.
The results for the event will be assessed on the aggregate time for the three stages. The presentation of the trophies/prizes to the overall male and female winners and placegetters, as well as age categories, will occur after the Sunday race. There will also be a breakfast on that morning.
This great and challenging event has been sponsored for some time by Merv Turner of Forest Design (Botanic Landscape and Horticultural Services).
