Geoquest 2016 - Port Mac again with Resultz - 20:40

My Mirage 730 - Matilda, having a rest while we ran around (fullsize)
I have fun at Goequest and love doing the event however have been a bit iffy about trying to organise a team for a few years. As many say one of the hardest things in the event is getting 4 people to the start line ready to go.

This year my attitude was similar to last, if I was asked to join a team I would probably say yes. I was asked and thus ended up racing with a bunch of fun guys under the banner of Michael's company Resultz Racing. Another great weekend on the mid north NSW coast with some amazing scenery (the two rogaines were highlights, especially the punchbowl waterfall on the second one).

My words and photos are online in my Geoquest 2016 gallery. Always good fun and a nice escape from winter.

Razorback Ultra - Spectacular run in the Victorian Alps - 20:31

Alex and another Canberran on the Razorback (fullsize)
Alex and I signed up for the Razorback Ultra because it is in an amazing part of the country and sounded like a fun event to go do. I was heading into it a week after Six Foot, however this is all just training for UTA100 so why not. All I can say is every trail runner should do this event, it is amazing.

The atmosphere at the race is laid back and it is all about heading up into the mountains and enjoying yourself. I will be back for sure.

My words and photos are online in my Razorback Ultra 2016 gallery. This is truly one of the best runs in Australia.
