The above link will take you to the page of the 2004 London-Sydney Marathon.
The initial/original one occurred in 1968. 

I was lucky enough to be in Perth, then, when the Australian leg started.
The Australian-British rivalry was as strong as ever.
The "Bloody Poms" won. When was the last time you could say that?

It's just not cricket. Anymore!!!!

Innes Ireland wrote a knockout book about his ordeal in the '68 event. 
Driving a 280SE Mercedes. 
"Sideways To Sydney." William Morrow & Company. British title was "Marathon 
In The Dust." 

I know it's not prewar. Just thought I'd share happy memories of the Damn 
Bush.

Brian Kelly.
Lawrence Kansas.
Ex-Pat Brit.
