What an AMAZING day! ⭐☀👍
On Sunday, Windgap participated in the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival, walking 3.5km over the Sydney Harbour Bridge finishing at the Conservatorium of Music.
It certainly is one of the most beautiful and scenic harbour walks and is a wonderful opportunity for our participants to be part of a fun community event with other Sydneysiders.
Huge thank you to our Windgap staff, friends and family who joined for 2022!
Looking forward to next year!
