Put your walking shoes on for a worthy cause THE quintessential Sydney event the Seven Bridges Walk is on again and it's time to get walking for a good cause. Registrations are now open for the fourth annual Cancer Council NSW event, which will be held on Sunday, October 31. The event is set to attract up to 20,000 people who can walk all, or just a portion, of the 25km course that crosses Sydney Harbour's seven iconic bridges - the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Pyrmont Bridge, Anzac Bridge, Iron Cove Bridge, Gladesville Bridge, Tarban Creek Bridge and Fig Tree Bridge. Walkers can start and finish at any of the bridges and there will be free buses and ferries to return people to their starting points. Food and entertainment will be available along the way. The event, which runs from 8am to 5pm, was started by the Pedestrian Council of Australia. This year, the Cancer Council NSW is a naming partner and funds raised from donations and the $10 adult registration fee will go toward cancer research, prevention, information and support services. The Seven Bridges Walk's media partner is The Sunday Telegraph. 7bridgeswalk.com.au
