Pub2Pub 2010 Fun Run Start Location Change from Dee Why to Long Reef
Update on Northern Beaches Pub2Pub this sunday 22nd August. Manly Daily Front Page news advised Sunday’s Pub2Pub Fun Run will now start at Long Reef Griffith Park, due to recent heavy seas opening Dee Why Lagoon.
Race founder Mark Bayfield said an alternative starting venue was essential. After inspecting matching tide and surf reports, it was decided to shift the starting location for the safety of all our runners… which is paramount.
The Pub2Pub start line will be near the south end of the open park, south of the tennis courts, to maximise the distance to the first street running along Beach Rd across Anzac Ave.

DUE TO DEE WHY LAGOON OPENING.
