A writeup of my experience at the Ultra Adelaide 100k in 2024. An Ultramarathon that follows parts of the Heyson Trail through the Adelaide Hills, then follows the Torrens River to finish in the Adelaide CBD. I'm stoked with a finish time of 10:43:18 and 3rd place.
Coast to Kosciuszko is an iconic Australian ultramarathon. Starting at Twofold Bay near Eden the course traverses 240km to arrive at the summit of Mt Kosciuszko, the highest point in Australia. 2023 was my first time taking part in this awesome race, which copped huge amounts of rain and weather.
The Guzzler is a trail running event on the slopes of Mt Coot-Tha in Brisbane, which takes one on a tour through national park and past three of Brisbane's reservoirs. In 2023 I ran the 100km event, went out a little too hard and despite an implosion at 60km, finished in 13:36:00 and 7th place.
A race report of the 2022 Great Southern Endurance Run (GSER) 100 mile event. Covering 161.8km with 10680m of elevation gain, this is a tough and beautiful course through the Victorian high country. Real grit shown by all athletes, supported by some truly amazing volunteers and supporters.
A race report of the Alpine Challenge 100km Ultra in April 2022. This is the second time I've run this race, and once again had great weather for the 100km / 4000m run. I finished this year in 14:05, beating my 2021 time by nearly an hour.
The Buffalo Stampede Grand Slam is a three day stage race where you race in 3x events over three days - The 10km Twilight Skysprint, the 20km Skyrace and the 42.2km SkyMarathon for a cumulative total of 72km.
A race report of the February 2021 Ultra Trail Run Australia (UTRA) Snowy Mountains 70km event - An almost entirely singletrack trail run that follows the Thredbo River via the Thredbo Valley Trail (TVT). A cruisy, scenic and well-supported course in Australia's Snowy Mountains.
Rain, wind and then some snow. A race report of the Great Southern Endurance Run (GSER) 100 Mile event in November 2021. Terrible weather force a course change, but overall a wonderful event
A race report of the Alpine Challenge 100km Ultra in April 2021. This was my first 100km, and it was an absolutely stunning run set in the Victorian Alps, with ~4000m elevation gain.
Sun, mountains and... blisters? A race report of the Elite Energy Australian Alpine Ascent 50km in Kosciuszko National Park - A trail race that runs two laps of the Mt Kosciuszko Summit loop.
Hot. Very hot. A race report of the 2020 Summit Shoalhaven 55km. This was my first Ultra since recovering from a stress fracture in my Fibula, and it was certainly an interesting day.
