As a participant in the Red Cross-Herald Sun Murray Marathon, you are amongst an elite group that goes the distance to make the difference - to the Australian Red Cross and all the people that we can then help with your contribution.

Paddler Registration
Every paddler participating in the Red Cross-Herald Sun Murray Marathon must register himself or herself individually, by filling in the downloadable Paddler Entry Form. Please fill out this form as accurately as possible.

Boat Registration
To make things much easier for everyone this year, we have redeveloped Boat Registration. If you are participating in the Red Cross-Herald Sun Murray Marathon as a team, please nominate one person to be your representative, or "team captain". This person is then responsible for filling and returning the downloadable Boat Entry Form to Australian Red Cross on behalf of the team. If you are an individual, download and complete the form as per normal.
