Australia..Talks on Multistage running


As you can imagine, Australia has diverse and spectacular landscapes, perfect for outdoor training in many sports, especially MultiStage running. As yet, only a dozen Aussies venture overseas to the various races. I was invited to speak at the Terrigal Trotters meeting on a few consecutive Saturdays after their longer training run. Even though Trotters is a 'fun' running club in a small beach town, it is managed by a committee of renowned Australian runners, has over 500 members, a detailed newsletter written by a former New York reporter and many members who have done over 100 runs. No wonder..Terrigal is surrounded by forests and pristine beaches including Terrigal's main beach which stretches for 6 miles. It also has crystal clear baby surf, which I love. Hopefully see more of the Trotters at the upcoming races at the end of the year.
