City To Surf 2010

 

Pioneer Team in Sydney, CHECK! Pioneer team up early ready to race, CHECK! Kim standing on a bottle and rolling her ankle in the race CHECK!  WE MADE IT.  The Pioneer Team have successfully completed the city to surf and what an amazing day for the entire pack.  Up early, a little too early the group were super excited.  As Karen and I headed to Bondi to cheer on the team over the line, Kristy got the group pumped at the start of the line.  Bec, Blaydo and Porter crossing the line first for Pioneer and the team kept rolling in as time went by.  For some it was a first and not the last and for others a chance to beat last year’s time.   Huge congratulations to the entire team who headed to Sydney this weekend. Kristy and I are SUPER SUPER proud of the entire group!

Ski Trip 24-7-10

 

18 Pioneer troopers got up before the crack of dawn on Saturday to venture on the best adventure EVER!!  Lach, Helga, Karen and Daniel jumped on the bus in the City.  As the bus headed down to Calwell to pick up, Kristy, Kim-Maree, TJ, Hannah, Donna, Terri, Ann, Peta, Gem, John, Belinda and Kimbo.  Off we went to the sunny PERISHER Blue to carve, or not so carve it up down the slopes.  The weather was perfect and the slopes were breath taking.  After a quick run through of the day we all went off on our merry little way. 

Kristy teaching her girls and Kim-maree how to board while Nick Kim and I hit the chair lift for our first run down the slopes.  It was amazing!! After a few runs down I stacked it hard and I hear this “HELLO” behind me and there was Peta looking like she had been some sort of Olympic Ski Champion in a past life.  Off she went down the slopes with ease.  Meeting up with Lachie and Helga a bit later they had been off frolicking the slopes and having a fabulous time.  Belinda and Ann went up the lift and it took them a good hour to get back down, then they decided to get some lessons.  Daniel and Karen decided to do that first thing in the morning, good idea guys!  John and Nick were clearly the best of the day on their boards heading up to do some of the harder runs on the slopes.  Donna and Terri were off and would pop in every now and then to have a rest.

At 3:30 we all met up to have a bit of a laugh, talk of the bad crashes we had and talk of the amazing time we all had.  Then we got back on the bus to top off what was another amazing adventure with Pioneer Training.  

Thank you to everyone for coming and enjoying the slopes with us we enjoyed your company. 

City to Surf Training

 

A few Pioneers ventured out to Pine Island today to train for City to Surf.  A 14km rolling hills course will meet the crew in Sydney and Kristy and I have no doubt that this group will leave dust behind them

Canada Fun Run – Sunday 20th June

 

We woke up to a beautiful sunny day, and with a race start time of 10am, there were smiles all around. 13 Pioneers took part in either the 5km or 10km Yarralumla bay course all finishing in awesome times! Chris completed her first ever 10km fun run in an awesome time of 62min. Jacinta showed that despite not running training, boot camp is clearly working for her, smashing out a time of 52min. Annie came in so early over the line, I didn’t even expect her! She clearly has been doing her running program. A terrific effort from all our team, Jenna and I were super proud of everyones efforts, it was so awesome to see those Pioneer shirts flying along the course.

Cheers to Julie (Helga and Lach’s daughter), who came down from sunny Gold Coast to freeze her backside off and be put through a torturous 4 days consisting of Boxing, X-Training and the fun run! It was great to have you Jules, maybe next time we should come to you?? Bit warmer!!

City 2 Surf – 2010

 

The time has arrived again! Frolicking down the streets whilst being hosed down by spectators, played to by bands, cheered on by kiddies, and harrassed by pub owners to stop and have a beer. Pioneer Training has entered a team in the City 2 Surf, and now it’s up to you to enter. There are different categories for the people who want to smash through it to categories for people that want to jog/walk and one to just cruise along and enjoy the atmosphere. Jenna and I encourage everyone to give it a go. It’s a wonderful event, and the 14km track is extremely entertaining.
