Hey Em,
Just wait till you've done 90km and then turn into Martyr road. It was pretty nasty last year after 53km.
I still think the walk up the Staircase, Mt Bogong, is worse than Donna Buang especially the steep kick at the end.
Oxfam is a great event, have fun and try not to think too much about the Gurkas coming through the 70km station 9 hours before you, hardly raising a sweat, grabbing an apple and a drink, and leaving (all at 2am in the morning).
Good luck,
