The run was the idea of a former Mt Wilson resident and bush runner Ross Bill. Ross, in his training runs, mapped the course and after 12 months of persistence, in mid 1995, convinced the Bilpin Rural Fire Brigade to organise the event, in conjunction with the Mt Wilson Rural Fire Brigade. The first run was organised in just 3 months with 66 starters, with Andrew Lloyd the winner. The event gained acceptance with runners and continues to grow. We have always tried to make it a “runners run” and welcome constructive comments from runners on how we can improve the experience.
This is a 34.4km event through fire trails, bush tracks, down a dirt road to the valley floor at Bowens Creek then a graded assent for 7 km's up to Bilpin then to the race finish at the Bilpin Community Hall where you will receive a warm reception and a hot shower.
The race record was set by Glen Guzzo in 2004 at 2:07:31
