Registrations are now open for a weekend run to Cootamundra to support the running of the Cootamundra Sprints. This weekend is generally designed for those interested in taking part in the Sprint Day, however for those interested in more social pursuits associated with exploring the Cootamundra District.
To add some variety and interest to the weekend a small group run leaving a day earlier via Rockley is proposed.
There is also the option to depart a day later and travel directly to Cootamundra generally down the M31 Hume Highway to Cootamundra.
The basic travel plans are as follows:
28th August 2025 - Thursday
Make own way to Rockley Pub managed by Matt Moran to stay overnight and gourmet dinner. There are only 5 rooms available so will need to be on a first come basis. However, there are 2 off AirBnB options available so getting together with some good friends could be an option for you.
If interested, please make your own bookings and payments. See details below.
