TEXT DESCRIPTION OF LONG-RUN COURSE                              

        13 Kms                 -                 Regatta, Uni, Green Bridge, Annerley Road.

        Leave RedMan in a Westerly direction through South Bank Parklands with the river and the city to your right. At approximately         1.75kms you will pass underneath the Victoria Bridge. Veer left under the bridge and follow the wooden spiral ramp up and         onto the Western footpath across the bridge. Cross the bridge and turn immediately left down the footpath leading under the         motorway and back along the bikeway at river level. Turn right at the river and head West again. Hard to get lost for a while now         as you just continue to follow the path all the way out to the Regatta Hotel which will be on your right at about 5.3kms.

        Nothing too dramatic happens here. You continue to follow the path but it does ease away from the river and you climb slightly         up past the Toowong shops on your right. Stay with the left hand footpath and the main road as it becomes Brisbane St. Pass         the Bus Stop shelter and down the slope. Coming up on your right is a Service Station and on your left Sir Fred Schonell Drive.         Turn into Sir Fred Schonell Drive and follow it for about 1 km until you are inside the Uni grounds. At the second roundabout         which forms a crossing with Sir William Macgregor Dr turn left. The athletics track and stand are to your right. A tap and toilets         are to be found under the grandstand.

        After a drink, head off across the athletics track and veer left across the road and onto the gravel path along the river. A lovely         run around the Uni grounds till you come to the Green Bridge spanning the river. Climb up onto the bridge and cross the         river. Follow the road leading up the hill on your left until you come to a main road. This is Gladstone Rd. Turn right and look to         cross to the other side of Gladstone Rd once it's safe. 100Mts or so on your lef you will see a small park. Turn into the park and         you will find a tap near the shelter. Head out of the park down the hill back towards the city. That is down Annerley Rd. Great         warm down run down the hill. Eventually you come to a T intersection with another main rd known as Stanley St where you'll turn         left. Cross to the right side of Stanley St and at the lights at the main intersection with Vulture St veer right into the small Dock St.         Just about there. Follow this road aroud the bend and you can almost see the Red Man. Run back down onto the river path              heading East and there he is! 13kms Great Effort.

         13 Kms                 -                Regatta, Uni, Green Bridge, Annerley Road.

         TT1                      -                 Taps, Toilets and Service Stations available along route.
