The marathon committee likes to know whether there is
interest among competitors in transport from the Quorn Oval to the starting points of the different events:
Saltia or the Old Willows Brewery restaurant before the start of the event. Please drop an email to

QUOTES FROM RUNNERS "The
Pichi Richi event has become my personal favourite marathon (having done
Adelaide, Melbourne, Great Ocean Road and Paris, etc) because of the
landscape, the intimate nature and solitude of the run and the gentle
upward slope through the hills that is inspiring. This is why I have
always organised a group of SA Road Runners to accompany me each year in
this event." "The Pichi Richi run has
the challenge of a steep course, but not too slow as it's all on sealed
roads. It's uphill all the way, so that 'second wind' never quite kicks
in - but what an amazing sense of achievement when you cross the finish
line. It's great running in the really fresh air of the Flinders Ranges,
too."
