Description:

This annual AY run tests your legs by running up Haeckel Hill starting at the wildlife viewing ending at the windmills. The conditions vary from year to year and but you will be running on a dirt road with some rocky sections. Some years snow can still be found at the top. The route was cut short in 2021 due to snow, so it was only 4.7 kms rather than the usual 6.5. and finished at the meadows rather than the windmill.
