After a gruelling training program, Blado slogged out her first half marathon in Sydney on the weekend finishing in an awesome time of 116min 04 seconds. That is an incredible pace of 5min25sec per kilometer for 21km’s! For someone who 18 months ago hated running around an oval, Denise has gradually built up her running fitness and after a taste of the longer track in City 2 surf Blado set her goal of a half marathon before X-Mas. So with an intense program, her IPod in hand, and a big smile, she put her head down bum up and trained hard.

Denise, what you have just achieved is because of the commitment and hard work you put into your training. You are an amazing woman and Jenna and I are extremely honoured to be a part of your accomplishments. Congratulations on an amazing race!

4 of our pioneers took part in the Community CPS triathlon yesterday at Yarralumla Bay, and clearly had way too much fun as nearly every photo that we got had a smile!!! The girls did extremely well, Bris team battled the long course and didn’t have any stops, whilst Scotty and Nicole hit the short course. Whilst it was Nicoles virgin triathlon, you would never have guessed as she looked super comfortable then entire way. Scotty cleared the water first in her group and led the pack out on the bikes. With all the mayhem of million on bikes everywhere we are still waiting to see if she came in one of the top positions for her race! Well done girls, you did me extremely proud! Jenna is giving you a big thumbs up in Perth.
