This run event review's a bit of a different one, and not part of my low/no cost races in South Australia, but a true 'destination marathon' for people from all over the world. I've run it twice now, in 2017 and again this year in 2018, and even though it's a relatively small field, there [...]
Want to come to Cambodia with me in 2019? A little while back I was approached by a friend of mine who was heading to Cambodia towards the end of January 2019 to run an ultra with some friends. She'd been on both my Bali and Cambodia tours previously, and clearly a glutton for punishment, [...]
As an addition to my previous article on low and no cost runs in South Australia, I thought I’d do a few reviews of these runs for you. This one’s of The Federation Ultra Trail which also includes a 12.5km, 25km, and 50km distance. This review is of the 50km event, although the second half [...]

Before I was a bit fatter and a bit older, completing the Adelaide Marathon in a not too shabby time the old fashioned way - by actually doing the whole thing in one hit, on the actual day of the event. No, it's not a joke. There's no punch line. Or maybe there [...]
