Remember when sport and politics didn’t mix (Yes: I know they always have, but let’s pretend the perfect world in which they don’t actually exists).
Seeking some respite from the tedium of an Australian election campaign that has not yet left – and probably will not leave – the tit-for-tat...

I recently had dinner with two dear friends, Benny and Rich. Our reunions are relatively few and far between, given Benny is in Sydney, and Rich lives on the other side of the (Yarra) river…far too far away for a comfy northsider. But in the...
Not long ago, Morgan Mitchell was our next big hope over 400m. When news broke post 2018 Commonwealth Games that Morgan was changing event and becoming a half-miler, it turned some heads. But Morgan didn’t just make a casual change, she went all-in, teaming up with one of the...
It’s not often you find yourself writing about the same athlete two weeks in a row, but who else do you talk about this week other than Catriona Bisset?

"The Leonora golden gift weekend is an amazing opportunity to show case the beauty of a small town in the Western Australian Outback. For the elites and developing athletes, it gives us a unique chance to share our love for our sport, the outdoors and striving to reach our...
“This is a game-changer.”
If I had a dollar for every time this phrase was used about the Aarhus 2019 world cross-country championships – well, you know how the cliché ends. The fact that I’m writing it means that I obviously don’t have a dollar for every time, etc, etc.
