HUNDREDS of runners will descend on Wandiligong this Saturday for the Wandi Cross.
The fun mountain running challenge kicks off at 8am and brings together elite to first time mountain-traversing enthusiasts, competing in four mountain runs – a 2km kids run, a 5km fun run, a 14km run over both Mystic Mountain and Goldmine Spur, and a 27km trek with four mountain ascents that circles through Freeburgh.
​All profits from the day are donated to Wandiligong Primary School.
Last year's event drew around 300 competitors and organisers are hoping to equal or even surpass that number.
Blake Hose and Gillian Turnbull both broke the male and female 27km course record at 3 hours and 9 minutes, and 4 hours and 14 minutes, respectively last year - setting the new mark to beat this year.
