Little River sisters 

stand tall at World Cup 

Sisters Alana and 

Chelsea Bremner from 

Little River are poised 

to play big roles in the 

Black Ferns’ bid to win 

the Rugby World Cup. 

Suzanne McFadden 

from Newsroom 

reports 

THEY’RE BEST mates, who’ve 

bought a house together, 

and who lift each other’s 

performances when they’re on 

the rugby field alongside each 

other. 

And together, Alana and 

Chelsea Bremner played crucial 

roles in the win over Wales at 

the weekend. 

Lock Chelsea Bremner scored 

the opening try in the 56-12 

hammering which comfortably 

delivered them into the Rugby 

World Cup quarterfinals. 

The victory also marked 

Alana’s successful return to 

the Black Ferns, having made a 

remarkably quick recovery from 

a torn knee ligament five weeks 

ago to start strongly at blindside 

flanker. 

It wasn’t only their proud 

parents – shearer Phil and 

accountant Sharon – who were 

thrilled with the performance of 

their daughters. 

While Black Ferns head 

coach Wayne Smith thought the 

Bremner sisters, playing at No.5 

and No.6, were outstanding. 

“Chelsea Bremner is getting 

better and better. She only 

started playing when she was 

21,” Smith said of the former 

premier netball player. 

“I used to think she was a tall 

gangly thing, but she’s got a lot 

about her.” 

“Alana… she’s a bit of a beast, 

isn’t she? She’s a great carrier; 

she’s tough.” (She made some 

impressive breaks, advancing 

the ball 48m during her 40 minutes 

on the field). 

“We’re lucky to have them.” 

Alana, the younger sibling, 

suffered a tear high in her right 

MCL at the end of the Farah 

Palmer Cup season, and has 

undergone intense rehab with 

the Black Ferns medical team 

since they’ve been together in 

Auckland.

Miniature city street on display 

• By David Clarkson 

CANTERBURY Museum’s early 

Christchurch street will be stored 

away for years while the museum’s 

$205 million redevelopment goes on, 

but the city’s talented model makers 

have ensured that it can still be on 

display – in miniature form. 

THe work by the team of 

miniaturists will go on display at 

Labour Weekend for the first time, 

as part of their national convention 

which is being held in the city after 

years of Covid delays. 

It is a 12th-scale replica of the street 

that has been a classic display at the 

museum for many years. 

The replica was the idea of modeller 

Helen Goy, who passed the idea on 

to other members including Jewel 

Lewis – who immediately decided 

on a modelling format from her own 

childhood. 

However, this museum ‘shoebox’ 

was on a much larger scale, involving 

treasures from the past 

the work of more than 20 miniaturists. 

It is a part of the Our World in 

Miniatures Exhibition, which will 

be open to the public all Labour 

Weekend, including displays from 

model-makers who are gathering 

in from all over the country at 

Silhouette Studios, 6 Sheffield Cres, 

Burnside, from 10am-4pm (Saturday- 

Monday). 

Entry is $5 for adults, and a gold 

coin for children. 

The Lyttelton School Picnic 

A highlight of the school calendar, in 1915 the picnic was literally 

derailed by a railway accident.

Veteran steam tram back on track 

• By Geoff Sloan 

NEW ZEALAND’S oldest steampowered 

tram – and one of only three 

left in the world – is set to re-enter 

service over Labour Weekend. 

After an extensive five-year restoration, 

The Tramway Historical Society’s 

141-year-old Kitson steam-powered 

tram is set to hit the tracks again at 

Ferrymead Heritage Park. 

The society’s project director Alex 

Hunter said the steam tram was repaired 

by some of its younger volunteers, who 

were keen to see it going again. 

“It’s lovely to drive, especially now 

we’ve got a few less knocks and bangs in 

it,” he said. 

Kitson Steam Tram number 7, or 

‘Kitty’ as she is affectionately known, 

has had its boiler replaced and the bodywork 

repaired and repainted. 

The tram is the only survivor of eight 

imported from the UK in 1881, and is 

the only working example of three left 

in the world. 

In its past life, Kitty would haul trailers 

behind it filled with Christchurch 

picnic goers heading to Sumner Beach, 

three times a day. 

Hunter said it wouldn’t have been a 

fast trip, as the steam-powered tram 

trundles along at an average speed of 

only 15kph. 

The tram will be the star of the 

Labour Weekend’s Extravaganza event 

at Ferrymead Heritage Park.

Antarctic window hunt brings history 

Lyttelton Historic 

Museum Society 

member and 

‘Antarctican’ Peter 

McCarthy reports on 

a great initiative in 

Lyttelton 

DURING THE recent Days 

of Ice festival local children 

were asked to use their powers 

of observation and hunt out 

Antarctic-related items in the 

windows of 16 Lyttelton shops 

and businesses as part of the 

Lyttelton Antarctic Window 

Hunt. 

It was aimed at five-to-15 

-year-olds and organised by Te 

Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum and 

the Lyttelton Harbour Business 

Association. 

The concept for the window 

hunt came from Ruth Targus, 

a previous manager at the 

Lyttelton Information Centre. 

The Lyttelton Library and the 

Information Centre supported 

the window hunt by stocking 

and collecting entry forms. Debbie 

Fox from the library said “it 

was a great idea with a lot of kids 

taking part and who appeared to 

enjoy the challenge”. 

Margaret Bradshaw drew the 

winning entry form. Bradshaw is 

a local ‘Antarctican’ and was the 

first woman to lead a deep field

Duncan won a radio-controlled CAT 950M wheel loader. 

party in the Antarctic. She had 

first visited the continent in 1975 

to collect specimens for a new 

Antarctic Hall at the Canterbury 

Museum, where she was curator 

of geology. 

The winning entry was from 

Duncan McLaughlin, 8, of Rolleston, 

who won a radio-controlled 

CAT 950M wheel loader donated 

by Terra Cat in Hornby, which 

as New Zealand’s Caterpillar 

dealer has been supplying and 

servicing Caterpillar machinery 

and the plant in Antarctica since 

Hillary’s Trans Antarctic Expedition 

in 1957. 

International Antarctic Centre 

family passes and soft toys were 

donated as prizes by the centre’s 

general manager David Kennedy, 

while Dogs of the Vastness books 

by Lyttelton author Ben Brown 

were donated by the NZ Antarctic 

Society (Canterbury branch). 

Highlights of Days of Ice were 

Te Radar’s Antarctica at the 

Lyttelton Arts Factory where 

there were two sell-out shows. 

Te Radar delivered fast-paced 

heroic-era history of penguin 

botherers intertwined with gems 

of flora and fauna, plus stories 

of contemporary Antarctic 

adventurers dragging sledges to 

the South Pole. 

Safe speed around schools 

Way safer for everyone 

We’re making it safer around schools and surrounding streets. 

Whether you’re visiting whānau and friends, letting tamariki 

walk, scoot or bike to school, or driving to work or home again, 

you should be able to do it safely. 

Lower speeds save lives and prevent serious injuries. 

Regardless of the cause of a crash, speed is the difference 

between someone being able to walk away relatively 

unharmed or being seriously injured or killed. 

When everyone travels a bit slower, people feel safer to use the 

street and walk, scoot or bike to parks, schools and local shops. 

Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency have changed the way speed 

limits are set. This gives us an opportunity to implement an 

area-wide approach for consistency, especially around schools. 

Planned speed changes 

We’re planning to lower speeds around schools to 30km/h 

in Lyttelton, Governors Bay and Diamond Harbour. 

Governors Bay and Diamond Harbour roads will remain at 

50km/h until we look more closely into what the appropriate 

speed is for these settlements (unless the road is outside 

schools, in which case speeds will be reduced to 30km/h). 

Find out more 

Before we make changes towards making 

the roads safer around schools and 

easier to get around, we’re keen to hear 

if there is anything we need to know. 

For more information, to view the areas 

and to tell us what you think visit 

Information is also available at your 

local council library.

After missing the Black Ferns’ 

opening victory over Australia, 

her family weren’t sure when 

they’d see her take the field at 

this World Cup. 

“I’m absolutely thrilled to bits 

for Alana getting over her injury. 

We thought she may not get to 

play so soon,” Sharon Bremner 

said. 

“It just feels right they’re out 

there playing together,” Phil 

Bremner added. “They’re so 

used to playing together for 

Canterbury, Matatū and club, so 

when one’s not out there it just 

feels like something’s missing. 

I think they get strength from 

each other.” 

The sisters embraced after 

Chelsea powered over the line 

from a pick and go to post the 

Black Ferns’ first points on 

Sunday, 17 minutes into another 

slow start for the home side. 

“To see her succeed makes me 

so happy and vice versa,” Alana 

said afterwards. “It’s not often 

you get to play alongside your 

sister in a home World Cup in 

front of your friends and family. 

So to do that puts a big smile on 

my face, sitting next to her in the

changing rooms and to have the 

support of her there.” 

But the Canterbury loosie 

wasn’t so happy with a crucial 

part of the Black Ferns forwards’ 

performance in the first half, 

even though they were led 22-7 

at the break. The Welsh, ranked 

eighth in the world, threw 

everything they had at the Black 

Ferns, rattling them in lineouts, 

scrums and driving mauls. 

“We were doing some awesome 

things around the field as 

a pack, but our set piece wasn’t 

good enough,” Alana Bremner 

said of the first half against 

Wales. 

“It was cool to see the improvement 

of that in the second 

half - we started contesting their 

lineouts and held it in there a bit 

more in the scrums. That will be 

something we’ll look to [improve 

on] next week, because things 

like that won’t be good enough 

later in the tournament. 

“It’s really disappointing, it’s 

something we’ve been working 

really hard on,” Bremner 

said. 

“We need to stay in the fight 

which we weren’t doing. It’s 

a mentality thing; at least we 

know it’s a thing we can fix, we 

can change during the week,” 

she said of this weekend’s next 

match, against Scotland.

Straight Up 

by Ruby Tui 

Ruby learned to rely on herself and her own strengths as a child, growing up without role 

models, in an atmosphere of misery and shame. Her extended family did all they could but it 

was sport that was the one constant in her childhood, and that pulled her through. Her sporting 

talent helped her fit in as she was moved from school to school and community to community 

throughout her childhood. From the age of about eleven, Ruby found herself in some very difficult 

and dangerous situations and things could have turned out quite differently for her. Fortunately her 

strength of character and resilience meant that she survived. Not only survived, Ruby managed 

to make it to university. And it was there that she discovered her love of rugby. From there, her 

stellar career in rugby took off, firstly in the Black Ferns Sevens team and now playing fifteens 

for the Chiefs and the New Zealand team. Off the field Ruby is a regular commentator for SKY TV 

and passionate about healthy environments for Kiwi kids and speaking up about mental health 

within the sporting community. Impacting change through speaking out about public issues, and 

providing motivation and gratitude to her peers is how she would like to leave her mark. Ruby is 

the current ambassador for the Headfirst initiative. 

Vital Signs 

Heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious stories of a junior 

doctor’s first year by Izzy Lomax-Sawyers 

Diagnosis and death; uncertainty and urgent laxatives; sleep deprivation and synthetic drawstring 

trousers: this debut work by Izzy Lomax-Sawyers chronicles her first year as a tired junior doctor 

at Auckland’s Middlemore Hospital. 

How can Izzy be a thorough and compassionate doctor while still leaving work before 7 p.m.? 

How does she uphold dignity and autonomy for people whose liberty has been taken because 

of severe mental illness? How will she know when what can be done for a critically ill patient is 

different from what should be done? And is this floor clean enough for her to sleep on? 

Izzy grapples with these questions and more as she rotates through psychiatry, orthopaedics, 

medicine and surgery. 

Thoughtful, funny and at times heartbreaking, Vital Signs invites readers to join Izzy through the 

highs and lows of being an apprentice in the art and science of medicine. Get your scrubs on, 

chug your coffee; ward rounds start at 6.45. 

Charlie’s Good Tonight 

by Paul Sexton 

Featuring forewords from bandmates Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, this is the official and fully 

authorised biography of the world’s most revered and celebrated drummer as it’s never been told 

before. Mid-1962. The newly formed Rolling Stones are on the hunt for a permanent drummer. 

Their sights are set on Charlie Watts, a jazz musician already well-known within London’s 

rhythm and blues clubs. Fortunately for future Stones fans the world over, they persuade him to 

take on the job. Once installed at the drum seat, Charlie would not miss a beat for the rest of his 

life. He was there throughout the swinging sixties as the Stones reached superstardom and for 

the well-documented debauchery of the 1970s, typified by the iconic album Exile on Main St. 

Battling his own demons by the eighties, Charlie emerged unscathed, cementing his reputation 

as the thoughtful, cultured but no less compelling counterpoint to his more raucous bandmates. 

For almost 60 years – through all the band bust-ups, bereavements and changes in personnel 

both on stage and off – Charlie remained the rock at the heart of the Rolling Stones. At the same 

time, he was the antithesis of the rock-star archetype, an intensely private man who valued his 

family above all else.

Russia Conundrum 

How the West Fell for Putin’s Power Gambit - and How 

to Fix It by Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Martin Sixsmith 

Mikhail Khodorkovsky has seen behind the mask of Vladimir Putin. Once an oil tycoon and the 

richest man in Russia, Khodorkovsky spoke out against the corruption of Putin’s regime - and 

was punished by the Kremlin, stripped of his entire wealth and jailed for over ten years. 

Now freed, working as a pro-democracy campaigner in enforced exile, Khodorkovsky brings us 

the insider’s battle to save his country’s soul. Offering an urgent analysis of what has gone wrong 

with Putin, The Russia Conundrum maps the country’s rise and fall against Khodorkovsky’s own 

journey, from Soviet youth to international oil executive, powerful insider to political dissident, and 

now a high-profile voice seeking to reconcile East and West. 

With unparalleled insight, written with Sunday Times bestselling author Martin Sixsmith, The 

Russia Conundrum exposes the desires and damning truths of Putin’s Russia, and provides an 

answer to the West on how it must challenge the Kremlin - in order to pave the way for a better 

future.

HISTORIC: Last 

year’s winner was 

Lynda Sadler, of 

Tai Tapu, with 

her father’s photo 

‘Balloonist in 

Lancaster Park’. 

PHOTO: NEWSLINE 

Time to dig out your 

old forgotten photos 

HAVE A look in your garage, 

cupboard or anywhere else you 

might have stored that old and 

probably forgotten photo. 

Because it could be a 

competition winner. 

Last year, Tai Tapu resident 

Lynda Sadler found a photo 

taken at Lancaster Park in 1899 

in her garage, developed by her 

father from a glass plate. 

The image ‘Balloonist in 

Lancaster Park’ was taken just 

weeks before the turn of the 

century, during a parachute 

display by famous daredevil 

Captain Charles Lorraine. 

Hours after the photograph 

was taken the parachute came 

apart from the balloon and 

was blown out to sea. Tragically 

Captain Lorraine drowned. 

The image won the 

Christchurch City Libraries Photo 

Hunt annual competition, which 

is under way again this year. 

City council head of libraries 

and information Carolyn 

Robertson said the image was 

chosen as last year’s winner 

because of its connection to 

social history and the incredible 

detail in the image, especially as 

those watching the balloon who 

were unaware they were being 

photographed. 

“The hope is that this image 

will inspire people to take a 

look in their garage, or back 

cupboards to find their old 

photos,” she said. 

• The competition is open 

until October 31 as part of 

the Christchurch Heritage 

Festival. 

STRUCTURAL REPAIRS 

and safety maintenance work 

are about to start on Akaroa’s 

wharf. 

Fulton Hogan will carry out 

the work, which will take about 

a month to complete. 

The Akaroa wharf dates back 

to 1887 and is coming to the end 

of its useful life. 

The city council has approved 

a concept design for a replacement 

wharf and plans to get 

construction underway next 

year, with the aim of having the

Repairs to begin 

on Akaroa wharf 

new wharf completed by the 

middle of 2025. 

In the meantime, it needs to 

keep up maintenance and repairs 

on the existing wharf so the public 

and commercial operators can 

safely continue to use it. 

Public access to the wharf will 

be maintained while the repair 

work is done. The contractors 

will be working Monday to 

Saturday between 7am and 

6pm. Some on-street parking on 

Beach Rd will be restricted for 

safety reasons.

Chamberlain’s ton steers the way again 

HARRY Chamberlain’s second 

consecutive match-winning 

century on Saturday has 

given him and his Leeston- 

Southbridge team a dream 

start to the new country cricket 

season. 

In a Canterbury Country premier 

one day competition clash 

of the titans at Darfield Domain, 

Chamberlain’s innings of 101 not 

out, off just 83 balls, steered his 

team to a tense two-wicket win 

over rivals Darfield. 

There were also victories for 

Weedons, Cheviot, and Sefton 

in round two in what is shaping 

up to be a quality, hard-fought 

season. 

Leeston-Southbridge won the 

toss and elected to bowl first – a 

decision they were soon ruing 

when Canterbury representatives 

Zak Foulkes (89 off 108) and 

Henry Shipley (37 off 40) were 

cruising against the balanced, 

disciplined bowling unit. 

Darfield finished their 45 overs 

on 211/7, confident that they 

could defend the total on their 

home patch. 

And they soon had Leeston-Southbridge 

reeling at 89/6, 

before Chamberlain, hot off 

an unbeaten century the week 

before, teamed up with Dougald 

Munro (30 off 37) for an ultimately 

match-winning 99-run 

seventh-wicket partnership.

win against Darfield earlier this year.

There were still some tense 

moments before the winning 

runs were knocked off in the 

40th over, however, with just two 

wickets to spare. 

Sefton secured their second big 

win in as many matches with a 

93-run win over Peninsula-Harbour 

in spite of their top order 

failing to fire. 

Batting first, at 49/4, it was 

seasoned campaigner Matt 

Laffey who came to the rescue, 

caressing 85 runs off 113 balls to 

help lift Sefton to 217. Akhil Pant 

and David Neal claimed three 

wickets apiece. 

Micah Campbell was destroyer-in-chief 

for Sefton, taking 

the new ball and knocking off 

the combined side’s top order. 

Campbell finished with matchbest 

figures of 4/15, as the competition 

newcomers struggled 

with the bat for the second week 

in a row, falling to be all out in 

the 30th over for 124. 

At Southbrook Park, on a 

deceptively dicy-looking pitch, 

Cheviot elected to bowl first 

against the combined home side 

representing Oxford-Rangiora-Southbrook. 

It was only the typically-dogged 

innings of opener 

Calvin Scott who showed any 

resistance against the Magpies 

attack, with Scott carrying his 

bat for an unbeaten 42 off 99 

balls. 

No other batsman was able to 

hang around with him and they 

were rolled for just 103 in 38.3 

overs, with the three Fitzpatrick 

brothers, Tom, Johnny and 

Harry, sharing seven wickets 

between them. 

Cheviot opener Ryan Ellis 

quickly showed how few 

demons there were in the newlyrefurbished 

’Brook pitch by 

smashing an unbeaten 61 off just 

33 balls to complete the ninewicket 

thrashing in just 13 overs. 

Ohoka suffered another 

heavy loss, this time a sevenwicket 

defeat to Weedons who 

rolled them for 111 before 

Blake Coburn almost singlehandedly 

knocked off the runs 

by smashing 72 off just 52 balls, 

including four sixes.

Treasures from the Past: 

Lyttelton School Picnic 1915 

NEWS 11 

THE ANNUAL Lyttelton School 

picnics were much anticipated 

occasions – a highlight of the 

school year and an important 

date in colonial Lyttelton’s social 

calendar. Over the decades they 

were held at a wide range of 

locations including Riccarton, 

Amberley, Kirwee, Quail Island, 

Ashburton and Purau. 

Occasionally postponed due 

to war or epidemic, the picnic in 

March 1915, in the early years of 

WW1, was literally derailed by 

a railway accident, although the 

event did go ahead in spite of the 

disruption. 

A train, fully laden with 

excited children and their 

caregivers bound for Amberley 

from Lyttelton, “came to grief” 

at Addington Railway Station. 

Travelling at 20 mph, the bogey 

of the engine left the tracks at a 

bend and threatened to topple 

the entire line of carriages. (The 

bogey is a flat chassis underneath 

a railway vehicle body, with axles 

and wheels attached through 

bearings, to guide direction.) 

The quick and brave actions of 

driver Smith and fireman Wood 

averted a potential disaster. By 

staying on board and applying 

the brakes at some risk to their 

own safety, they managed to stop 

the train, with just the bogey and 

baggage van ending up on their 

side. 

Thankfully, the 13 passenger 

carriages stayed upright on the 

tracks. Smith and Wood sustained 

a few knocks and bruises 

and although the children were 

shaken, none were injured. They 

were transferred to another train 

and continued on to the picnic 

at Amberley. 

Such was the widespread 

gratitude for Mr Smith’s and 

Mr Wood’s actions, on May 26, 

1916 a ceremony of appreciation 

was held in the school playground. 

Highly regarded local, 

Dr Upham spoke of the men’s 

heroism, as did the headmaster 

Mr Just. Both men were formally 

presented with a silver tea service 

by senior students Eunice Mazey 

and Alice Russell, inscribed with 

the following notation: 

A large crowd gathers in the Lyttelton District High 

School playground to recognise the efforts of driver CTJ 

Smith and fireman OBC Wood in the previous year’s train 

accident. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum Ref 14981.1

‘PRESENTED TO DRIVER S 

C T J SMITH (FIREMAN O B C

The ceremony closed with a 

round of “For they are jolly good 

fellows”, followed by enthusiastic 

cheering and then afternoon 

tea hosted by the lady (sic) 

teachers. 

Mr Smith’s tea tray is cared 

for within Te Ūaka The Lyttelton 

Museum’s collection, currently 

in temporary storage at the Air 

Force Museum of New Zealand 

at Wigram.

School picnics continued to 

be an important feature for 

many decades, right through 

until the significant celebrations 

held in 1974 for the school’s 

centennial.

Iconic fun run back from city to surf 

IT’S BACK TO the future for 

Christchurch’s most notable fun 

run. 

The Les Mills City2Surf in 

March will start in the central 

city and wind its way to New 

Brighton, finishing at Rawhiti 

Domain. 

It will be 50 years since the 

first Les Mills City2Surf, which 

has seen hundreds of thousands 

of Cantabrians take part over the 

decades. 

Because of the damage the 

February 22, 2011 earthquake 

caused to the original route, the 

event was switched from starting 

at Pioneer Stadium to the finish 

at Ferrymead Historic Park. 

Star Media regional manager 

Steve McCaughan said it was 

fantastic the City2Surf was 

returning to the central city out 

to the coast. 

“After all these years it’s great 

to be going from city to surf 

again,” he said. 

Starting at Latimer Square 

at 9am, the full 12km route 

includes the Otakaro Loop and 

Avonside Drive, continuing 

along New Brighton Rd and 

finishing at the City2Surf village 

at Rawhiti Domain. 

For those who want to take 

part, but find the 12km distance 

too long, the shorter, 6km 

route starts at 10am at Avon 

Park, opposite Porritt Park in 

Avonside Drive, also finishing at 

Rawhiti Domain. 

In the early years, the event 

started from Cathedral Square 

and finished at New Brighton 

beach. After four years it 

finished at QEII Park, then in 

2012, following the earthquakes, 

the finish line changed to the 

Ferrymead playing fields. 

The event will mark the 50th 

year since the inauguration of 

the City2Surf in 1974, and it will 

be the 48th running of the event. 

McCaughan says the organisers 

are hoping to see 15,000 people 

taking part, making it the 

biggest event to date. 

The naming sponsor for the 

2023 City2Surf is again the 

Christchurch Les Mills fitness 

club. 

Club manager Tevita 

Siulangapo, who describes 

himself as “a born-and-bred 

Christchurch boy” says he has 

always viewed the City2Surf 

event as an “integral part 

of mobilising the people of 

Otautahi”. 

“So, having the opportunity to 

support such an iconic gathering 

through Les Mills makes me 

incredibly proud,” he said. 

While City2Surf is billed 

as a fun run, participants can 

complete the course by walking, 

jogging or even pushing the 

baby in a pram, however they 

wish, though many do treat it as 

a serious running event. 

Groups of people can also 

enter as a team, and can book a 

team site at the finish line. On 

reaching the finish, participants 

are invited to spend time at the 

new City2Surf village, with its 

live music, warm-down exercises 

and food stalls. 

“We’re excited about the 

new village and the festive 

atmosphere it will create for 

everybody so we encourage 

them to stick around and enjoy 

it,” McCaughan says. 

There will also be a prize 

pool. Every entry bib will have a 

unique number giving everyone 

the chance of their number 

being drawn to win a prize. 

• Entries opened Saturday, 

October 15. 

Fees: Adults (12+), $35; 

children (five to 11), $20. 

Both include bus fare to 

the starting point and from 

the finishing point. Children 

under five enter free. 

Entries can be purchased 

online at the City2Surf 

website or from advertised 

outlets.
