The Blatch’s Primary School Dash course consists of a 1 mile / 1.6 kilometre lap of the asphalt Gosling Creek Reserve bike/running track. Participants start at the festival start area and head west following the running and bike path, going west to the northwest corner of the reserve. Runners will then make their way south west, turning toward the water, and then back east to the finish.
The Primary School Dash will begin at 11:20am on Sunday 7th March, 2027.
The event site is open from 6am onwards, so come early, enjoy the running festival vibe and stay a while to celebrate after you finish!
