MelbushO is on next Sunday, and the venue is Plenty South. Part of Plenty Gorge Park, this map features a great mix of open forest, clear grassy slopes, and an intricate network of small tracks that require close attention. There are rivers to cross and hills to climb, and kangaroos to spot. All this in the northeast suburbs of Melbourne, just a few minutes north of the ring road. Enter the park via the gate at the west end of Collendina Crescent in Bundoora (Melway 10 F10). Note: there are no toilets at this venue.
Enter on the day at Registration between 9.30 and 11.30am – $10 for adults, $5 for juniors (u21). Choose any of four courses – Long Hard (6.1 km), Short Hard (4.3 km), Moderate (3.8 lm), or Easy (2.9 km) – something for everyone to enjoy and challenge themselves with. Your entry fee includes a colour map, electronic timing device, coaching, and refreshments. We are planning to have a coaching session with Mikkel afterwards, so if you’d like to pick up some tips and improve your navigation, please feel free to join in. Enquiries: voa@iinet.net.au
