This year we have had fire, smoke, ash, rain and now we face isolation.  Nevertheless, the spirit that has made the event part of the culture in the district continues in individual efforts of many.  Over the 13 years of its existence there has been many thousands of people from all parts of Australia and overseas participate. On our records, we have had 212 people having done more than 20 runs.  Included in this total are 40 people that have done more than 100 runs.

Because of the need to exercise near home, card carrying Broulee Runners are recommended to find a 2, or 3.5- or 5-kilometre course in their location and record an individual time over one of these distances.  Their results can be sent via Facebook, text or Email and they will then become part of the history of the event.  The eligibility to become a card-carrying member is to have done at least one run over the hallowed track starting from the anchor.

It is very special to see 5-year-old Jye Barbara complete his 30 runs and receive his shirt.  He always competes with great enthusiasm and it difficult to stop him at the finish of his 2 kilometres.
