Failing to fail and winning at my goal. By Simone Harvey #675 UTA22 was chosen in the wake of my DNF from the 100 last year. I really lacked the ability to put the hours into training with my children at the age they are now. But I wanted badly to go back into the belly of the beast that is the Blue Mountains. I met with Melanie, my coach, and we went through the pros and cons of different races and I was excited at the prospect of the 22km. It's a distance that surely was manageable. I had completed a few half marathons and I knew I could put the hours in needed for training. So once booked there was no going back. Training went particularly well and I had no injuries in the lead up. My downfall is my explosive starts and not yet managing to hold on for a full half and let's face it - UTA 22 was designed for a super-fast paced start, and yet again my epic fail. This was a perfect mental and physical challenge for me. The nerves never actually kicked in, I was just excited. I set 3 goal times for myself. A fast one, a mid- range one and one that surely I could achieve. I missed the first two but smashed the last one. Several friends had registered for the same event. Some were Trotters and some were not. This made for the perfect setting for me. Each person there with me would experience the delight, beauty and pain that I would also endure. The race was a really late start which I believe was a huge factor into the carnage of the race. The morning was brisk and many dressed in longs. I took a chance and went with shorts and singlet…Thank goodness. Whilst standing in the beating down sun I was glad I had planned for a warm start. UTA never fails to deliver a quality atmosphere, and everyone was ready to go when the countdown sent us off onto the trails. I kept cool and held back as planned but www.terrigaltrotters.com.au once the downhill started I let momentum do the work and my legs would just follow. 8km of straight downhill is a lot for my poor quads to endure. And yes they were quivering when the first uphill came at the 8km mark. This wasn't too bad. I expected this as I had run it in training. After the first hill it was straight back into the downhill with a few uphills until the 13km mark. Lots of people were already dropping with cramps in their legs. I had already made the decision not to stop at the first check point. I had everything I needed in my pack and I wasn't deviating from my plan except my head really needed some watermelon. I had been salivating for some for the last km. As I passed I grabbed some with a polite thank you in my passing. Until this point I was on time for an excellent sub 3hr... Well at that pace if the downhill had continued I would have made a finish in sub 1:40. But who am I kidding I knew I had a brutal uphill climb out of the basin. I ate that beautiful delicious piece of watermelon and ditched the skin with an official who was coming down the hill on my climb out. As I grabbed some water out of my pack I didn't realise but it made all of my GUs fall onto the trail. And as I continued on the climb that never ends a lady finally caught me just as I went to pull one from my pack and was unable to locate it. Handing one to me she said I think you dropped a few of these. A quick thank you and I ate it and went into panic. Oh no, I have no nutrition and the hardest part is yet to come. I had salt tablets left and without knowing I would need these (ALL of them) in a short km until the finish. The cramping - it started at 15km, there was a pull in my right quad. I reached for a salt tablet to drop in my water... But the water wouldn't go down quick enough before both quads started to cramp. I thought to myself I am not going to be taken out by a stupid cramp and grabbed another salt tablet and ate it whole. My face was on fire but it did the job. I can do this. Just push on... This seemed to be a regular occurrence every km. So I decided to use those salt tablets like sherbet. And put them in my mouth to suck on while I ran. Yes my legs were cramping and they were on fire but I knew I had only a few kms to go and those stairs would be in my sights. Coming out past the sewerage works I saw about 30-40 people who were in front of me taking the wrong path. I contemplated - Do I call out or let them go? I turned the corner and called as I turned the right way. “Come back you're going the wrong way.” At least I could sleep that night knowing they didn't get lost out there. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au From there it was a fast paced flat single trail section with a couple of technical parts. All I could think of was just hurry up and get there. Those stairs are waiting. It wasn't long until I reached the stairs. 951 stairs!! The climb was brutal but spectacular. If you've never climbed them it is a MUST do. I used the hand rails in every section I could and tried to avoid using my legs. Then it happened. 200m from the finish both legs seized and I fell into a tree. I was somewhere between screaming and wanting to cry. The lack of hydration kicked in and I started to hyperventilate. I only had 200m to go and my legs wouldn't let me. Between the crowds I could hear the Trotters at the top of the stairs calling out. (When someone passes at the base of the stairs they call your name at the finish line to let others know you're coming). My mind set changed instantly and I thought “They are all waiting for me”. My leg muscles relaxed for a moment and it was all I needed to get up the rest of the stairs and push out a light sprint to the finish line. Thanks Wal for the encouragement coming into the finish! Crossing the finish line - one step cramp two step double cramp... Over the line seize. I had nothing left. Completely depleted, dehydrated and looking for the railing. My friend Amanda was there and her dad came over to take my pack and I handed it to him, he looked at me while I struggled with my legs and said – “Do you know who I am?” I looked at him. Is this guy from Trotters? Should I know him? I lifted his hat off and sunglasses and came nose to nose and said “No!” I'm super glad he was amused by my dehydration. He called for the medics and they carried me to the aid station they made me squat to release the muscles, gave me some Hydralyte and then made me stretch out. A lie down and 20minutes later I apologised to Amanda's dad and regained composure and waited for other Trotters and friends to finish. Can I say it’s an amazing race and yes, I'm coming back next year. A quicker time and a bit more hydration and nutrition will hopefully help….and of course more training and conditioning. A huge thank you to my amazing husband, for doing the mummy duties on a Friday so I could fulfil my goals. A massive thank you to Melanie McDonald for always being the amazing supportive coach she is. To all the other trotters, make this a goal race, it truly is beautiful. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au TERRIGAL TROTTERS UNIFORMS New 2XU Singlets and Shirts have ARRIVED! $55 each Men's (S, M, L, XL) and Women's (XS, S, M, L) available See me at Saturday's Trotters or email me at amcouchman@gmail.com Adam (#862) www.terrigaltrotters.com.au SMH Half Marathon 15 May 2016 Name Net Time 157 Trotter # 658 Mark DUNLOP 01:23:52 Gen Pl 143 285 654 James MORAN 01:28:09 504 921 Barb VAN DARTEL 01:31:48 Pos M40-49 (36) AG Points 747 262 M40-49 (76) 728 43 F40-49 (9) 785 Category Pl 900 8370 Mark LOUIE-JOHNSON 01:36:12 804 M40-49 (232) 646 1,630 8676 Tony MCGARRY 01:42:10 1396 M40-49 (403) 614 1,738 89 Mark ANDREWS 01:42:53 1483 M30-39 (577) 583 2,079 916 Shayne HILL 01:44:55 1739 M30-39 (685) 569 2,669 955 Adam QUINN 01:48:22 2177 M50-59 (167) 634 2,988 502 Heiko SHAEFER 01:49:57 2387 M70-79 (2) 799 5,255 760 Jo LITTERICK 02:01:40 1567 F50-59 (70) 645 5,591 352 Graham DAVIS 02:03:39 3857 M60-69 (84) 615 5,798 953 Rebecca FRANKEL 02:04:44 1837 F50-59 (90) 598 7,243 903 Jon FOGARTY 02:15:22 4634 M60-69 (130) 567 7,305 8,942 165 704 Sue INGHAM Ian KEENE 02:15:52 02:42:57 2638 5250 F60-69 (23) M60-69 (185) 717 490 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au www.terrigaltrotters.com.au 6@6 4/5/16 11/5/16 18/5/16 25/5/16 Name Time Laps Time Laps Time Laps Time Laps Wayne Daley 24.48 5 24.17 5 23.36 5 10.05 2 Colin Bullard 34.15 5 34.02 5 Kerry Hope 28.59 5 17.28 3 11.08 2 Mark Hope 25.11 5 28.21 5 Daniel Hope Adrian Smith 27.43 5 Gary Hempstead 29.40 5 31.40 5 Nakeisha Heapstead 33.51 5 34.55 5 Sabine Byrne 26.25 4 John English 24.22 4 25.55 5 2 + 2 hot laps James Panetta 25.41PB 5 Anna Schultz Alex Bojanic 22.15 5 Ian Morgan 29.23 5 27.30 5 26.03 5 29.07PB 5 29.35 5 22.19 5 14.21 29.10 5 28.15 Gus Sophie Hawkins 17.32 Gary Champion 11.17 Charlene Eddy 30.06 5 5 27.36 5 3 2 Brian Murphy Bernie Pannell 26.48 29.09PB 5 24.47 5 11.14 2 18.41 2.5 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Hot Laps 800m 4/5/16 11/5/16 Name Time Laps Ronan Hope 8.31 2 Time 18/5/16 Laps 25/5/16 Time Laps Time Laps 18.11 4 8.40 2 17.11 3 Keighlan Coombes 14.34 4 Leroy Coombes 14.17 3 Emma Byrne-Bates 19.21 3 17.45 3 Tristan Byrne Killian Byrne 10.54 3 10.33PB 3 4.00 1 13.21 3 10.37PB 3 13.38 3 Austin Milne Sam Eddy 14.01 2 17.03 2 Isaac Eddy 15.00 2 18.11 3 Cain Gustard 14.17 3 6@6 All ages and abilities welcome Times will be recorded and drinks This is a 6km time trial, laps are 1.2km long.

I was halfway through a trip around Australia with my wife and 3 kids and he happened to be there at the same time doing some photography work. So after a jog and a meal, somehow the conversation turned to running and we decided it’d be a good idea to do a marathon. And if you’re going to do a marathon, why not make it a memorable one? Note to self – decisions made after a few Little Creatures brews may one day prove to be quite painful! The weekend was an adventure to say the least. We flew to Melbourne and stayed with family who were gracious enough to lend me their car and camping gear. So on the Saturday we drove from Melbourne, through Torquay (where perfect 4 foot lefts at Bell’s Beach taunted me) and along the Great Ocean Road. The race runs from Lorne to Apollo Bay so we drove the course on our way to our camp spot at Apollo Bay. We soon started to worry that we’d bitten off more than we could chew but what a beautiful spot for a run. The tent was fine, until the wind hit around midnight. At least it didn’t rain! But I had read somewhere that the sleep 2 nights before a run is more important than the night before, so I wasn’t too worried about the side of the tent billowing over my face every few minutes. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au On race day the weather looked pretty good. It was a perfect running temperature, the wind was a moderate cross wind, the scenery was spectacular and I can honestly say I enjoyed the first 25 km. The road follows the ocean almost the whole way with cliffs, beaches, streams and friendly locals encouraging you in each small town you pass through. But as I approached a bend at 27km and could see white caps marching north out to sea, I knew things were about to get ugly. From then on we had a constant 35km/h headwind and rain on and off (Dan even got hailed on at one point). There’s no two ways about it, it was a very tough, cold and miserable 17km home. But let’s not focus on that… I’m happy to say I ran the whole way except for a few aid stations (although on any other day I wouldn’t call what I did between 30 and 40km ‘running’). Finishing any marathon I’m sure is a great feeling and I can totally identify with that. After what the weather threw at us, I was so happy and a little overwhelmed to cross that line. In summary, it’s a truly remarkable race in one of Australia’s most beautiful locations. Definitely recommended, if you like that sort of thing Marathon 44Km Trotter Pos Name # 162 122 Keiran TURNER 246 8662 Daniel FERRIS Net Time Gen Pl Category Pl 03:57:08 04:08:39 M(141) M(196) M30-39 (60) M30-39 (76) www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Terrigal Trotters Hilly Time Trial - 28 May 2016 Pos Trotter # 1 541 Name Net Time AG Points Domonic PERRY 0:37:12 722 2 658 Mark DUNLOP 0:38:23 751 3 8673 Grant BRISBANE 0:38:31 708 4 654 James MORAN 0:41:11 717 5 856 Therese AUTON 0:41:14 736 6 638 Joe ROLELLA 0:41:15 705 7 8507 Alyssa BETTS 0:41:57 723 8 860 Ross MARKEY 0:43:03 725 9 854 Rochelle JILLETT 0:43:13 703 10 838 Ciaran LYNCH 0:43:16 661 11 665 Ian TEMBLETT 0:43:21 720 12 576 Steve GUEST 0:44:14 711 13 929 Amanda MARCHANT 0:44:22 685 14 8370 Mark LOUIE-JOHNSON 0:44:27 644 15 912 John HEPWORTH 0:44:59 614 16 963 Louis FOURIE 0:45:00 641 17 8112 Mark TIPPLE 0:45:05 596 18 8676 Tony MCGARRY 0:45:06 639 19 529 Graham HARRINGTON 0:45:39 662 20 8689 Jess SHIERS 0:45:57 669 21 780 Troy KASTELAN 0:46:13 634 22 89 Mark ANDREWS 0:46:28 594 23 930 Tim BARLING 0:46:39 618 24 43 Kevin DEAN 0:47:31 772 25 875 Peter BEATON 0:48:01 596 26 607 Jeff DICK 0:48:30 688 27 585 Peter JACKSON 0:48:34 687 28 8690 Troy ROCK 0:48:46 591 29 813 Graham LAWS 0:49:14 629 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au 30 258 Adrian SMITH 0:49:27 621 31 955 Adam QUINN 0:50:14 626 32 810 Lindsey SCHULTZ 0:50:59 549 33 8664 Madeleine ROBERTSON 0:51:30 589 34 897 John LOVE 0:51:46 603 35 815 Patrick LAWLESS 0:51:53 524 36 845 Kerry HOPE 0:52:12 609 37 8685 Rowena MCDONALD 0:52:20 589 38 593 Steven GRAY 0:52:24 672 39 760 Joanne LITTERICK 0:52:43 686 40 8666 Julie BURLEY 0:53:13 638 41 366 Wayne EVANS 0:53:30 641 42 953 Rebecca FRANKEL 0:54:02 636 43 534 Susan MCBRIDE 0:54:09 642 44 107 Lynn BROMWICH 0:54:18 712 45 248 Les LOWE 0:54:19 604 46 8607 Mark PETERSON 0:56:14 583 47 698 Tammy SHAFER 0:57:22 567 48 8515 Sophie LANE 0:57:44 531 49 1 Kevin ANDREWS 0:57:52 577 50 311 Chris HATCHER 0:58:38 528 51 903 Jon FOGARTY 0:59:07 591 52 679 Karen BOYD-SKINNER 0:59:37 551 53 550 Tony LORD 1:00:31 599 54 862 Adam COUCHMAN 1:01:47 456 55 631 Wayne DOHERTY 1:02:33 524 56 641 Jon STEVENS 1:03:43 591 57 8 Steve HUGHES 1:03:43 543 58 827 Rod TAWYER 1:05:55 481 59 8691 Cheryl CLEMENTS 1:09:27 507 60 8692 Celia THOMPSON-SHAW 1:12:07 421 61 8693 Elizabeth BLIK 1:12:12 465 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au 62 481 Tony COLLINS 1:12:14 497 63 8694 Lydia MCKAY 1:12:15 424 64 892 Nick HOWARD 1:18:18 No DOB www.terrigaltrotters.com.au May 2016 Milestones #124 Paul Davison 700 runs #607 Jeff Dick 400 runs #494 Mark Rollins 600 runs #679 Karen Boyd-Skinner 200 runs www.terrigaltrotters.com.au John Love For giving up his whole Sunday to drive the bus to the Sydney Half Marathon Oliver Warschkow For his perseverance in completing the UTA 100km Barb van Dartel For her wonderful time in the SMH Half marathon www.terrigaltrotters.com.au South West Rocks Running Festival 12 June 2016 Marathon 12 Trotter # 690 26 908 Matthew ROBERTSON 3:31:58 M (23) M30-39 (9) 589 72 879 Karin TAPPOURAS 4:53:00 F (21) F40-49 (8) 542 Net Time Gen Pl Age Place Charlie BROOKS 1:20:53 M (4) M18-29 (2) AG Points 732 Pos Name Net Time Gen Pl Age Place Tom ROBERTSON 3:11:46 M (12) M18-29 (3) AG Points 651 Half Marathon 4 Trotter # 660 29 856 Therese AUTON Debut 1:40:37 F (5) F18-29 (1) 654 75 366 Wayne EVANS 1:55:01 M (60) M60-69 (2) 655 81 27 Ken HICKSON 1:55:55 M (63) M60-69 (3) 669 90 557 Sabine BYRNE 2:00:54 F (22) F40-49 (7) 596 Net Time Gen Pl Age Place Mark DUNLOP 0:37:28 M (4) M40-49 (1) AG Points 770 Pos Name 10km 5 Trotter # 658 7 643 Stuart BAVERSTOCK 0:38:11 M (6) M40-49 (3) 761 8 130 Kevin BYRNE 0:38:37 M (7) M40-49 (4) 736 47 845 Kerry HOPE 0:48:42 F (14) F40-49 (6) 652 Net Time Gen Pl Age Place 0:21:59 Ma (5) M Open (5) Pos Name 5km Pos 7 Trotter # 959 Name Daniel HOPE www.terrigaltrotters.com.au AG Points N/A South West Rocks Running Festival By Therese Auton I had decided (alongside my training partner, Alyssa) that this winter season I would step up the distance and begin racing half marathons, rather than the usual 10k races I do. As much as I enjoy racing hard and fast, I wanted to challenge myself with racing something longer. I entered the SWR half, just two weeks before the race - deciding it would be a great idea to have a good solid hit out right before I go on holiday to Bali (where the temperatures and traffic make training a tad difficult) and 3 weeks before my goal race of the season the, Gold Coast half marathon. I had felt fairly confident leading into the race - my training had been very consistent, I was posting some great times in time trials and other races, I was feeling good when racing - physically I felt fast, energetic and light, whilst mentally I felt confident, motivated and determined. I had also made sure I had a good two weeks of tapering from training and ate plenty of carbohydrates! Admittedly, I was nervous before the race - I don't usually get nervous before races, especially races where I haven't put any pressure on myself to get a podium finish or to make a certain time. In this instance, I expected just a couple things of myself; to finish and to run hard, but smart. I wasn't expecting myself to perform any kind of negative split, but I did hope to refrain from my usual race tactic of going out hard. I think I was nervous about the distance more than anything - about how I would feel both mentally and physically as the kilometres went on (I know the distance isn't much compared to what many trotters complete - but 21.1kms is a long way for me)! Unlike my usual 10k race, I couldn't anticipate how I would feel towards the end of the race nor how I would get through it. I woke up early, had two pieces of raisin toast and a banana, drank plenty of water, and drove off to the start feeling race ready. I got a great start, and felt great running through town - I was familiar with the course as I've raced the triathlon there many times, I love the surroundings of South West Rocks. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au My pace felt perfect - I got to the 10k feeling quite good - I was also sitting in second place and had a huge lead on third - which is always something to be happy about. I checked my watch to see 42:49 - I was very happy my head was in the right space, my legs felt great, I was coming second - I knew I could keep that pace and achieve a solid performance. Unfortunately, my stomach had other ideas. At roughly the 14k mark my stomach began burning and stitching up - something I'd never experienced before. At first I thought it may have been dehydration - or maybe even over exertion - but neither seemed likely. I stopped at the next drink stop - walked, took a few big gulps of water and Gatorade and kept pushing on. Unfortunately the pain only got worse, and at the 17k mark I ended up on the ground being sick. Nevertheless, I was going to finish - even if it meant walking those last few kms. I was passed by others, who encouraged me to keep going - but at times the pain became unbearable - I had no option but to put my hands on my head and walk. I shuffled the last few agonising kms away, stopping at every drink stop to cross the line in 1:40:12 and in fifth place overall for the women. Even though I was thoroughly disappointed with my performance, I was so happy that I completed the race. I was proud that despite the pain I was feeling, I still finished 21.1kms - I didn't give up! By completing the event I definitely learnt a great deal; namely that race day doesn't always go to plan and some things really are out of ones control at times. My first half marathon experience definitely hasn't deterred me from the longer distances yet, I'm keen to go into the Gold Coast half - just hoping that my stomach pains don't make an unforgiving return! The SWR running festival is a great event and it was really great having many Trotters and my family cheering me on to the finish - hopefully many more Trotters will go next year and experience this wonderful location and event! www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Mourne Way Marathon Ireland 11 June 2016 Pos 77 Trotter # 838 Name Ciaran Lynch Finish 4:56:56 SYDNEY SRI CHINMOY 24 HOUR TRACK RACES 18/19 JUNE 2016 Rank Trotter # Name Laps Distance AG AG Rank 18 544 Craig Gustard 315 126.222 M<50 11 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Walker’s Corner First Friday Walk For July 2016 It’s Whale Watching Time! So for our next walk we plan to head to the coast at Norah Head. Please meet at the park on the corner of Bush & Young Streets, at 9.30 on the 1st of July. From there we will walk along the bike path in the direction of Soldiers Beach, before returning to Norah Head & continuing to the light-house. If anyone in the group is interested, the light-house is open for tours from 10.00 – 1.30, & is well worth a visit with an entry fee of $6. If some of the group wish to take the opportunity for a tour, the other walkers can continue along the beach & keep an eye open for any migrating whales! From the light-house it is a short walk back via the bush trails to the park where we can have lunch, before adjourning to the nearby café (The Ark Café) for a cuppa. This is an easy walk- no need for walking poles. There are toilets in the park at the start of the walk, as well as along the way at Soldier’s Beach, & near the light-house. The distance covered will be approximately 5-6 kms. Please bring water & a snack/sandwich, & wear appropriate walking shoes. If you intend to join us for this walk, or you plan to bring along a friend, please contact Lynn at lynnbromwich@outlook .com before 7.00 pm on the evening before the walk. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Trotters Flat Time Trial - 18 June 2016 Pos Trotter # Name 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 536 Mark WARREN 658 8673 886 267 908 860 665 130 638 8695 89 780 941 855 875 607 8 258 43 585 8451 8341 8696 8433 8697 352 962 Mark DUNLOP Grant BRISBANE Warwick WHITMORE Wayne DALEY Matt ROBERTSON Ross MARKEY Ian TEMBLETT Kevin BYRNE Joe ROLELLA Mark IVESON Mark ANDREWS Troy KASTELAN Bernhard FREISLER Scott MCDONALD Peter BEATON Jeff DICK Steve HUGHES Adrian SMITH Kevin DEAN Peter JACKSON Darrel ROWETH Luke WILSON Scott ELWIN Steve DIGNAM Troy BROCK Graham DAVIS Dale SMITH Net Time AG Points 0:37:01 0:38:01 0:39:10 0:40:37 0:41:09 0:42:07 0:42:20 0:42:44 0:43:58 0:44:15 0:44:31 0:44:57 0:45:58 0:46:33 0:46:58 0:47:03 0:47:12 0:47:19 0:48:09 0:48:36 0:48:54 0:49:00 0:49:37 0:50:29 0:50:29 0:50:37 0:51:22 0:51:30 741 758 697 661 797 643 743 730 646 657 658 614 637 660 623 608 707 731 638 755 683 632 629 580 594 570 674 611 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 897 593 248 698 8666 898 791 550 612 827 107 483 862 641 486 481 892 John LOVE Steven GRAY Les LOWE Tammy SHAFER Julie BURLEY Oliver WARSCHKOW James WRIGHT Tony LORD Bill DIEBERT Rod TAWYER Lynn BROMWICH Graham RIDLEY Adam COUCHMAN Jon STEVENS Jo RIDLEY Tony COLLINS Nick HOWARD 0:51:56 0:51:58 0:52:30 0:53:07 0:53:14 0:53:45 0:54:18 0:59:58 1:00:05 1:01:12 1:01:24 1:01:25 1:04:24 1:08:00 1:11:58 1:11:58 1:17:34 601 678 630 613 637 558 548 605 571 523 629 516 438 553 496 499 No DOB This month is the last month of the Terrigal Trotters competition year so start planning what events you will do in the new year commencing 1 July 2016 to get some Super 7 points.

And that is despite the weather. The preceding weeks went down in history as being one of the most catastrophic for the local community – the carnage to Wamberal and Terrigal rivalling those storms of 1974. The 19th June started just after 3.00am for me. The skies were grey and cloudy with the odd star above and a temp of about 15Deg C – slightly up on the 10 degrees from last year but actually a good temperature for the runners. The start area was under the total direction or our newest Race Director – Jeff Dick, and a support crew volunteers coordinated by Jenny Barker – as Volunteer coordinator. Once again, she collated the names provided and gave them responsibilities. About 150 Trotter volunteers assist us in putting on such great events. Without the volunteers who do so much, our event couldn’t take place. The assistance of the Police in our event is very much under-stated. Jeff made the comment to me that Sgt Steve Russell made the starting of the event so smooth and seamless. Again, Seaton Wilson, of the RMS assisted in the race by providing his car to lead our wheelchair competitor, Brad Pemberton. Once again, we finished the three main events on the field in front of the Western stand of the Central Coast Stadium. The finish area crew (under the tutelage of Mark Andrews, Graham Davis, Mike Gero and Mark Dunlop) dressed the Stadium and the Festival area in the grassed section behind the western stand. But this Festival doesn’t just happen in the finish area. We have about 12 Directors who have their own area to look after. The guys on the trucks (Kevin Byrne, Daniel Pink and Lindsay Schultz, and their crews) started loading on Friday at the Council depot and then were up at 3.00am on Sunday morning to set out the course. Beverley Andrews once again did a very fantastic job as Registrar, prize organiser, and T-shirt obtainer - a truck load of them were delivered to the Stadium this year instead of my garage. Having Kath Casey, Stadium Manager, on side makes our job so much easier than using the park beside www.terrigaltrotters.com.au the Sailing Club. Her positive, affirmative attitude to our event makes my job so much easier. This year we had two announcers extraordinaire – the Ridler himself, Mr Graham Ridley, and Michael Walton of Travelling Fit fame – our sponsor of the 3km Kids Run. From about 7.00am until 11.00am they kept us informed of our competitors as they came across the line and spruiked the values of our minor sponsors who decorated our recovery area. Thanks also to Dave Lambert at the Surf Club Café for providing 1700 bottles of water, and to the Gosford Police LAC, the RMS, and the SES – they can’t do enough for us. Without their assistance, the race doesn’t happen. And what about Mars Foods?? Not only do they supply us with about 60 runners, but they are also a major cash sponsor, and they hand out over 2000 goodies bags to anyone who wants them. Even with such poor weather during the week, we had 2312 registered competitors (with a few more on the day in the Kids Run) with over 500 in the NBN Half – up by 20% on last year. As usual, we compete for our competitors with other Sydney and interstate based events, but still exceeded expectations. Although the main aim of the Bay to Bay Running Festival is always to produce events that are safe, achievable and scenic, and we do so much more. We exceed that in leaps and bounds. We show that we are a tight-knit group of like-minded people that is far stronger that the sum of the individuals. The dissimilarity and diversity of our members is the twine that binds us together. We also aim to support others in need. From the proceeds of the 2016 Festival, we hope to be able to donate somewhere between $35,000.00 and $45,000.00 - the main recipients being the Central Coast Kids in Need, and again Blair’s Wish. Stand proud Totters, you have put on a great event and provided for those less fortunate.

As always she is thinking of the safety of runners. And the winner of the lucky draw was Ronan www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Cape to Cape (By Greg Brown #505) i By a short fa t fit old bloke Once upon a time I had an idea of doing a big long run so I did. The run started at Cockle Creek on the South East Cape of Tasmania on the 2nd of April 2016. It was raining and cold for most of the first day, the next day was only cold, the third day was very windy and the 6th day was freezing. That was the only bad weather I had on the whole trip. Yes I did have some rain at night and some light rain in the tropics when it is 30 deg. But that didn’t bother me at all. It was hot though. When I hit Bundaberg they had a heat wave so the day time temperature never got below 30 degrees for the rest of the run. Misfortunes on the trip were limited. The caravan I have is 20 years old and a few things went wrong with that. Lost the spare wheel the first day when the rusty bracket broke off without us knowing. The hot water heater broke. We went through 3 sets of wheel bearings. A wheel broke off. The wiring went pfft. But that’s all. Me I had one blister in the last week and lost one toe nail. I had a quad muscle complain for 2 days so I had to walk and ice it every hour till it recovered letting me only do a 48km day. But that’s all. The best part of the trip was twofold. The people I met on the way they were so welcoming with many opening their doors giving me and my crew a place to sleep and something to eat but most of all they opened their wallets and donated to the cause. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Most of these people were people I had never met before which was amazing. The other part was the sunrises. Most where spectacular and as long as they were on my right side I was happy. If they were on my left I was going the wrong way. Strangely the scenery didn’t change must except for some spectacular water views over lakes and beaches. There was mainly farmland, grazing in the south, sugar cane in the North and wild bushland in the Far North. My preferred shoes were Hoka Stinson’s and I went through 5 pair of them with one pair being half a size bigger for late in the afternoon on big days. My socks were Steigen’s and the combination of the two contributed to me being injury free. The distance I travelled was about 5300km a bit shorter than expected. I found that you can’t trust Google Earth. Did I lose weight? Yes, about 2kg in total. Did I take a day of? Yes, the day I was on the ferry across Bass Straight and no I didn’t run around the deck or run on a treadmill I just sat watched TV and drank a few beers. The total time was 81day 4 hours and 40 minutes. Will I do another run like this? I don’t think so it was just too long. www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Woodford to Glenbrook Classic26 June 2016 Pos Trotter # Name (#) Net Time Cat (Pos) Gen (Pos) Net Pos 5 658 Mark DUNLOP 1:40:25 40 to 49 1) M(5) 5 Net Gen Pos 5 Grant BRISBIN 1:40:47 30 to 39(2) M(6) 6 6 6 39 921 Barb VAN DARTEL 1:59:35 Open(2) F(2) 39 2 40 89 Mark ANDREWS 2:00:15 30 to 39(11) M(38) 40 38 51 916 Shayne HILL 2:03:27 30 to 39(14) M(45) 51 45 67 813 Graham LAWS 2:07:58 50-59(5) M(58) 67 58 76 845 Kerry HOPE 2:10:29 40 to 49(7) F(16) 76 16 83 955 Adam QUINN 2:14:16 50-59(8) M(64) 83 64 Ken WONG 2:16:57 40 to 49(30) M(68) 89 68 89 91 593 Steven GRAY 2:17:14 60+(2) M(69) 92 69 92 760 Joann LITTERICK 2:17:13 50-59(3) F(23) 91 2 113 248 2:22:31 50-59(14) M(82) 113 82 154 898 2:32:38 40 to 49(37) M(98) 154 98 176 366 Les LOWE Oliver WARSCHKOW Wayne EVANS 2:38:55 60+ (6) M(109) 176 109 178 862 Adam COUCHMAN 2:39:08 30 to 39(32) M(111) 178 111 www.terrigaltrotters.com.au Trotters Trail Runs And Walks 2016 For all trail runs/walks, participants are totally responsible for their own welfare.

We drive passed them and think how daft they are, we know that they are risking their own safety and how it is only a matter of time before something happens. It is for this reason that Terrigal Trotters are doing this safety push now. While the mornings are dark we request that you carry a torch, use reflectors and wear light coloured or fluorescent clothing - it is for your own wellbeing. Thanks to all who have embraced this safety message, I have been approached by non-Trotters recently telling me they have noticed that runners are now more visible – it is good the message is getting through. PLEASE keep wearing visible clothes, keep using headlamps and proudly wear your reflective belt kindly donated to each Trotter by the Coast Runners Shop in Killarney Vale.
