- Well done to all who competed today at the Coliban relays. The Div 1 Men's team (our only team on the day) finished 7th. Having finished 2nd 2 weeks prior, it goes to show how closely fought the Div 1 competition is and we certainly missed some of our best runners who couldn't race. Check out the Results & Report.
- Good luck to Kristen Wyatt, Julie McNamara & Simon Gower at the Gold Coast marathon tomorrow and to Lee Troop in the 10k. Check back here for results as they emerge.

- Mark Tucker & Jason Woolhouse claim podium finishes at the Skins Sandown Classic (XCR09 Rd 3) & lead the Div 1 Men's team to victory over Box Hill. It's almost certain that Geelong Region was also victorious in Div 4 Men although the team results are still pending from AV.
- The Div 1 Women also performed very well though we await the AV team results for their overall placing.
- May 28, 2009 - For those competing at Sandown on Sat:
- 3k events all start at 1.45pm; 10k events all start at 2.30pm.
- The latest event information from AV can be found here.
- Important - if you are travelling there yourself, please note the entry point is from the Princes Hwy (as outlined in AV's latest information). If you get this wrong, it could add another 20mins to your trip!
- Good luck to all competing!

- The weekend looks promising! The Geelong Div 1 team looks to be at its strongest so far this year and will be led by Jason Woolhouse, Mark Tucker, Scott Rantall & Brenton Rowe. With plenty more depth not far behind, victory in both Div 1 & Div 4 Men is within our grasp. Contact us ASAP if you think you should be on it but are not.
