10.01.2022 A friendly reminder that QLD is still in stage 3 restrictions. This means that when out and about you should maintain a distance of 1.5 meters from anyone outside your household. Obviously this includes while out training and that post training coffee! Although we are extremely fortunate to have no community spread in our region at this time, as we have seen in Victoria, it can happen extremely quickly and within days, thousands have the potential to be infected before we eve...n know of a positive case is in our region. So please, for the health and safety of all, maintain your social distancing, wash your hands regularly especially before and after being in a public area and stay safe so this crisis can be over as quickly as possible for the benefit of all. Much love to you all. https://www.qld.gov.au//public-health/movements-gatherings See more

07.01.2022 Email just went out to all team's relay participants. Please read and understand course directions etc. Any questions you have, please ask Stephanie or John in the morning. We may start team's race prior to 9.30am if the kids race finishes early as we had no entries in the all abilities race. So rather than us all standing around getting nervous, we will start as soon as we confirm all team's are checked-in. Check-in will open at 7, but don't rush.... Parking in the engineering car park only, walk across to the track to check-in, then go rack your bike. Again, if your free, we'd love some help on the cycle and run courses for the kids See more
