It’s with disappointment that we have made the decision to postpone the Colts Academy training day originally scheduled for 15 April this year. Unfortunately, we have not received enough entry numbers to make the event viable. With a busy calendar of races in the first half of the year, a short lead in time, and a critical calendar clash with an Orienteering QLD training camp the same weekend, we have […]

Despite the race moving to a commercial model for 2018, I suspect demand will remain relatively high. As such, I’ve increased entry limits by 20%, with a backup option to increase by 40% if full demand requires it (although in […]
As an event organiser, I’ve always encouraged people to “race first, volunteer second” if they want to support an event. But I’ve always quickly qualified this statement with the fact that I love my volunteers. By organising events through the QLD Rogaine Association, I’ve had the pleasure to meet a collection of the most amazing people willing to give up their time and comfort to be part of an event […]
