Event Overview
WS10 Bungarribee is a timed running event in Western Sydney Parklands, with the Bungarribee course scheduled for 18 October 2026. The start area is adjacent to the Bung Shelter near the main carpark for Bungarribee Park, also used for the Rooty Hill parkrun start. The site guidance suggests arriving at 6:45am for a 7:00am start. Public toilets are listed around 200m from the start, with a drinking fountain at the start area.
What the Course Demands
The Bungarribee route is described as a large looping out-and-back where participants are generally kept close to the start area, never more than about 1.5km away. Underfoot, it is mostly sealed track, with two gravel sections plus a dirt section that can become muddy after rain. That mix can reward steady pacing and attention to footing changes, particularly through the unsealed segments.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits runners who prefer a straightforward, well-contained course layout with frequent proximity to the start area and facilities. It can work well for athletes building confidence in a structured 10km effort, while still offering enough variation underfoot to suit those comfortable adjusting rhythm across short unsealed stretches. Anyone wanting a simple logistics setup and clear start location should find it manageable.
