2011 Race Directors Report

URGENT URGENT.............Not Now!

Ben is calling for volunteers to man aid stations at various times throughout the event. We need enthusiastic people to cheer on the runners as they come through. Assist them with with their gear bags, filling up water bottles and any other assistance that tired and weary runners (or race director) might need. It is not a glamourous job. It may be in any weather and any time of the day or night, though you will find it rewarding to be a part of such an amazing event. Bring a team for company and make a day or night of it.

This event has caught the eye of some major Australian Ultra runners and it would be wonderful to impress them with not only the amazing iconic Heysen trail but also our special brand of South Australian hospitality.

Anyone willing to lend Ben a camping stove for teh duration of the event or volunteer please contact Ben This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.  or 0414 728 744
