Join us for the second leg of coastal challenge over Eastern Beaches - from Watson Bay to North Shore as we take on our unofficial attempt of the scenic 'Bloody Long Walk' (Sydney East route). Originally hosted by the Mito Foundation each November, we are tackling this spectacular coastal track our own way. This is a demanding, long-distance trek requiring high fitness and endurance, but the world-class ocean views are worth every step.
