It’s officially winter here and it’s getting a tad cold for my liking. One thing I have learned is to always dress accordingly to the weather +/- 5 degrees (Celsius). This has meant that on some recent morning runs it’s been 2 degrees with frost, and icy winds. I’ve had to don gloves, long sleeve […]

There are days when I wake up and I just don’t feel like going for a run. The day prior however I was utterly exhausted, and the thought of going for a run just tired me out some more. So I decided to take a day off. On this particular day, however, I was tired,
This year’s race review for Run The Gap is going to be slightly different. In the past, I have given this race review from the perspective of a runner. This year it’s going to be from the perspective of a race director. Last year (2014), I was the race director for the 21km trail event,

This week’s handicap run was the 8km Stawell Toyota handicap held out in the Stawell Ironbarks. The sub-juniors were off first. The course for the subbies was different to that of last year’s event.
