9 9 GETTING TO THE EVENT With record numbers expected, we recommend you arrive at the event precinct 1 hour prior to your start time to allow sufficient time to travel to the event and get yourself ready to run. Please allow extra time to drop off your warm clothing bag, go to the toilet, grab a coffee, and jog down to the start line. (approx 10 minutes fromMCG) We highly suggest that all competitors take public transport on the day, due to limited parking space, traffic congestion on race-day and the convenience and close proximity of public transport from the start line and MCG. RACE DAY PUBLIC TRANSPORT It is strongly recommended that registrants use Public Transport to get to the Event. Catch the train to Jolimont, Flinders St or Richmond Station and walk to the MCG concourse.
