This image shows a two-legged race where participants are tied to the leg of another runner who then compete against other runners who are tethered together in the same way. These two-legged races are known to have been part of community sports carnivals in the 1900s in Bacchus Marsh. This event may have been part of the annual Australian Natives Association (A.N.A,) annual sports festival which was held over the Easter period.
