A marathon has been planned which kicks off at eclipse time and is expected to
attract 2000 runners and 700 support crew -

Note carefully the map of the run at the bottom of the page which is to start the moment the
sun starts to re-emerge.
Those familiar with the area will be aware that movement on the roads around Port
Douglas can sometimes be slow at the best of times, but it might not be unrealistic to
anticipate such phenomena as officials wearing safety vests and bearing witches hats,
which they may decide to inconveniently place between you and where you might want
to go on the morning, should you need to be mobile. |
Great..whose brainiac idea was that?
