Recaps and Reviews on events I have participated in.
I have a cold (sad face). I’m not too sure where I got it, but either way, I knew that I wasn’t going to have a flash club run. These things happen, and since it’s outside of my control, there is nothing I can do about it, you just have to plod on. This week’s club […]

The Stawell Running Club season opens with the Dooen Engineering Sealed Handicap. I missed this race in 2013 as I was in Geelong to run the Geelong Half Marathon. I’m glad the running season is open for the year, it keeps me motivated and pushes me to get faster. The first race for the year

While browsing Facebook one day I saw The Running Company Geelong post an upcoming event they were a co-sponsor of. This is how I came to learn about the My Physio Trailblazer event in the You Yangs. I love trail running, there is no doubt about that. I enjoy it more and more each time

After a bye last week, it was nice to have the regularity of a club run. This week’s race was held up in Horsham along the river. The course was not the same as last year, due to work on the bridge. Either way, the course was flat, which means fast, but you never know

Today marked the 2nd Wimmera/Grampians Heart Challenge. Jackie created this event as her dad died of a heart attack back in 1996. The leading cause of death in our region is related to heart disease. Which is quite sad. All the monies raised from this event will go back into the community to help our
I would have written this post yesterday. I had the full intention of doing so. However, I was pooped. So alas it didn’t happen. But because I’m forward thinking I moved my Motivational Monday post aka July Challenge week 4 to tomorrow so I could make way for my race recap today. I guess it
