By Joshua Papanikolaou Runner’s Tribe: Since London what have you concentrated on to build back up and bring you to a great stint of training and racing in the US? Ben St Lawrence: 2012 was quite a disappointing year for me as far as top-end results were concerned. It had been...
Australian Mountain Running Championships I have run Australian championships in distances ranging from 3000m (or 1500m as a junior) to half marathon, over steeples, cross country, track and road, but I have never run an Aussie mountain running championship.
