Seriously everyone – you are blowing my mind here. We managed to pull some serious distance this past week.

Special Kudo’s to the following superstars:
Cesar C – who accomplished his running goal last week
Bruce H – who didn’t let the morning snooze by and went for over 20km Sunday before 10am
Matt P & Cary P – who ran a Half IM course for fun (on separate days!)
Louis M – who beat the sun out of bed for his run on Friday

If you aren’t part of the club on Strava – join us today. In the ‘Explore’ section select ‘clubs’ and enter Fletchers Meadow Cross Trainers.


Successful Simulation Day

IMG_4999Thank you to those who came out to participate in our Simulation Day event. We had slightly cooler temperatures (which seemed to be appreciated by everyone, especially on the run).
Barb K was our big winner in the ‘Swim Bike’ category – and a special call-out to Ryan B who was our youngest participant for the day. Well done everyone!
