Marathon for the G at Yarra Yearnings

Marathon for the G

Published 1 year, 8 months ago in Sport & Leisure.

Good news for all long-distance runners. The Melbourne Marathon will be based around the MCG - starting in Yarra Park and finishing inside the ground. This means an out-and-back course, which is always far better logistically than a point-to-point run such as the ghastly trek from Frankston to Melbourne. Rumour is the course will lap Albert Park and go along Beach Road as far as Sandringham before returning to the ‘G.

Sorry for long delay in replying - too busy training! Whether I take part depends on how well the legs stand up and whether I can get in enough kms beforehand. If I do run, it will be my 12th Melbourne Marathon and 52nd overall.

Inhabiting a parallel universe and walking to the beat of a different drum, I observe the machinations and misdemeanours of life in this funny old Yarra village we call Melbourne.
