The Six Foot Track Marathon (actually 45km) is run along the “Six Foot Track” which starts in Katoomba and finishes at Jenolan Caves. Long a favourite of many Striders. Sydney Striders help organize the race but it is a stand alone event and has its own website at www.sixfoot.com
There is a Facebook group to keep interested runners up to date with race day preparations:
In addition, Striders run a Sixfoot Training Group to get you in shape for race day. This is organized by Andy Stiddard and generally run most Saturdays leading up to March. The training runs build up in distance as race day approaches. The Training is generally on bush trails in Sydney’s northern suburbs and northern beaches. There is a Facebook group to help everyone stay up to date with what is happening. For Striders there is a newsletter informing of the latest event but you must tick the Sixfoot box in your membership details.
