 Monday 19 March 2012 - I am delighted by the response to the 2012 CVGT Australia Wangaratta Fun Run.
Despite the rain, we had a great day, with 475 finishers of all levels of fitness braving the conditions. Some really seasoned and competent runners also took part in the day posting some fast results. Thanks and well done to all participants and I hope to see you and your friends next year when we add a marathon and HM to the program. I hope you found the event this year enjoyable and information about our next fun run will be on the website as details are sorted. CVGT Australia Wangaratta fun run
Justin and I thank CVGT Australia, our naming rights sponsor for their contribution and support over the many months of preparations leading into the event. Your advice, support and contribution allowed us to deliver a cost effective family friendly event with increased numbers of participants. Thanks also to our major sponsors, media supporters, community supporters and volunteers. Please click here Sponsors and then on the sponsors logo to read more or visit there websites (if supplied) and consider supporting their businesses as they support the community through their sponsorship to the fun run.
This year we nearly tripled the participants, totalling filling the 5 & 10k field, having to turn people away in the last week with a promise of a bigger better event next year. We plan to change the course to a location that will cater for marked growth over the coming years and continually develop, improve and expand the event to encourage greater participation. We are committed to providing the community with a fast accurate course, value for money and a warm friendly atmosphere. With the expected large field numbers we will be introducing electronic timing and a heap more. Stay tuned to the website for details.

About me: Friends call me Shaz. I'm an ultra-distance runner,
mother and wife living in Regional Victoria, Australia.
I currently hold numerous Australian Records and have ambitions
of achieving more. This site has been developed to allow readers
to better understand what's required to be an ultra-distance
runner and hopefully will help to generate interest in the sport.
Ultimately I hope that I can continue to run well and can use my
success to inspire others to achieve their goals - at whatever
level.
So if you're doing little to nothing now, then get out for a
walk. If you're a walker then try to run a short distance. And if
you are already a runner then go further than you ever dared and
run faster than you ever believed you could because it's amazing what
we can do when we believe in ourselves.
