Marathon effort by Adelaide

HMAS Adelaide raised
money for tsunami victims.

HMAS Adelaide raised money for tsunami victims.

Although they were thousands of kilometres away in The Gulf, the ship’s company of HMAS Adelaide (CMDR Bruce Victor) remembered those lost in the tsunami and how they might help the survivors.

As a result a half marathon was run on the forecastle of the 4,100 tonne warship and a total of $5,000 raised.

CPORS Rohan Jennings and ABBM Nicola Gunthorpe completed the course in 1 hour 50 minutes and completed 286 laps of the forecastle.

They were accompanied by various other combinations of runners along the way.
