Route Details
The TGP Team Walk allows you to register a team and fundraise as always, but with the freedom on Event Day to:
- Walk the distance you want
- When you want

Most teams will decide to walk in the morning, choosing between 1 km or 5 km distances, likely on a paved park pathway or equivalent. Many will end with a small Covid-friendly celebration afterward (lunch, tea, barbeque, etc.).
