Hit RT, As the 2013 National Championships creep closer I’d thought I’d give you an update on my progress in the season thus far and some of the changes I’ve implemented in my training. As a bit of background info for everyone, at the end of 2011 I gave myself a...
Since last putting my running thoughts down on paper and sharing them with runnerstribe, the Australian domestic tour meets have been in full swing. So far this season, I have had the pleasure of competing in three of these meetings– Newcastle, Adelaide and Sydney. Hunter track classic – 2nd Feb...
The 2013 Australian Junior Championships was full of excellent performances both on the track and the field. The Australian Junior title was something that I had always wanted to win but with this being my last year it just wasn’t meant to be. After my performances at both the Hunter...

Congrats to everyone who made our World Cross team! It’s great to see Australian selectors fielding teams in all events to be contested in Poland later this month. I watched a video of the WXC trials on Runners Tribe and it’s great to see plenty of people running well...
