Method of predicting the number of casualties in the Sydney City-to-Surf fun runs.

A simple and effective method of predicting the number of casualties who may require urgent medical attention, which is based on previous experience in the City-to-Surf fun runs, including weather forecasts and number of entries, is described. In 1983 and 1984, the method was used to predict a number of casualties which was found to be consistent with the actual number. As a result of these predictions, the human and material resources were deployed effectively and all casualties were treated efficiently.
