Everyone who starts something has those times when they want to give up. Like anything, some things get stale and boring and you can find yourself in a running rut if you don’t mix it up a little. Going out day by day doing a 5k easy run may just be the thing that you [...]
It's called failing and it is something that as humans we are all afraid of. "I can't do that, I won't be any good", "I am not good enough", " I am too slow", "I am too old", "I am not experienced enough", "I won't fit in", "I couldn't possibly run with them".....heard it all before? [...]
WOW! What a ride I have been on for this years ULTRA TRAIL AUSTRALIA 2017 prep! Talk about an emotional rollercoaster! I have a lot of people that I want to thank, so this is the best place to do it. Firstly thank you to the team at AROC Sport / Ultra Trail Australia who took [...]

I have been doing a little thinking about RMA lately (funny that....) and this is how our story goes. One day I decided to start RMA and the next day it exploded like an atomic bomb went off......! Just like radiation filters across the nation at such an event, so does the word about RMA....and [...]
As we move on in our running journey we start to enjoy running and the many benefits that it can give us. The question that a lot of runners ask is "is it safe to run every day"? Some people may go on a 'run streak' or some people might just love to get out [...]
The old phrase ‘move outside your comfort zone’, in all its variations, ran through my mind time and time again as I readied for the Two Bays Trail Run on January 11th 2015. To say I felt like a duck out of water is an understatement. A fitting comparison might be like you were putting [...]
Are you a lone runner or do you pound the pavements or trails with a group? While lone running has its benefits for your training, group running can bring your running to a whole new level, not to mention the fun and friendships you will make on the way. Have you tried it? Rachel tells [...]
