Bruny Island Ultra: Solo 64km
"The sheer variety of different running events happening on the same day in the normally quiet, picturesque rural area gives the day a festival vibe. The ultramarathon is ideal for a first ultra, with 2km changeover points and flexible start times."
King Island Imperial20
"The feature event is a 32km (20 mile) solo handicapped race from Naracoopa on the East Coast and finishing in Currie, across the island."
Chicago Marathon
"Race day presented mild conditions, clear sky and a hot sun. Known as the “Windy City”, I was personally thankful that it wasn’t blowing a gale!"
Berlin Marathon
"With the city so quiet, it’s an opportunity to get some lovely photos of places that would normally be quite busy."
Compass Club: Lambert [Centre]
"Athletes run to the Lambert Centre which is the geographical centre of Australia. A good high 4WD is an absolute must."
Brisbane Marathon Festival
"The short, sharp ascent over the bridge will hurt, but it’s worth it when you’ve begun to descend knowing the finish line is half a kilometre away."
Great Ocean Road Running Festival
"It claims to be ‘Australia’s most stunning running event’ and I was excited and nervous to finally run the marathon (well slightly more, at 44km!)"
Ξ COVID-19 Remembrance Run
"I decided to run this as my final marathon of 2020. My little “up yours” to Covid-19."
Compass Club: Cape York [North]
"Don’t let the heat put you off, as it really is a unique opportunity to explore the magnificent Cape York Peninsula."
Ξ Dubbo Stampede (Virtual)
"It’s not the same as many including myself prefer to “race”, but if you have a passion, embrace it and run for a cause."
