Lake Macquarie 12/6hr or 30km Trail Run – Saturday 18th August – Entries Close Monday!...

Our next event will the Lake Macquarie 6/12hr, on Saturday August 18th once again hosted by Bob Gilbert, Bert van Netten and their team of volunteers around the Olney State Forest area in what is always challenging but attractive terrain. There are a couple of lookouts with great views and a good selection of controls available for the novices through to the elite competitors.

This year not only do we feature the 6 hour and 12 hour event but we have incorporated a 30km trail run loop. Trail run flags are marked on the map with a coloured Triangle and are numbered with sequential values from 10 to 20. People interested in doing this run still have to form and run as a team (for safety) and the objective will be to finish as soon as possible, having punched the 10 controls on the way.

All events will start at midday on Saturday. The 12 hour will finish at midnight and the 6 hour will complete at 6pm you can finish the 30km bush run as quickly as you can.

We have have a pleasing number of NSWRA members sign up for the 2018 Australasian Rogaining Championships in the Gympie Region, Queensland, wish them all a great time experiencing the best of what Queensland Rogaining has to offer. Although official entries have now closed, there may be a chance for late entries by contacting the organisers on the following address: arc2018@qldrogaine.asn.au.


Call for (In particular the NSW Champs)

The NSW Champs will be held in little over a month on 22nd-23rd September, and like any 24h event it requires a lot of volunteer hours. Now is a great time to check your diaries as if you are unavailable for the event, organiser Michael Watts would love some help with the vetting and flag hanging in the few weeks prior, as well as flag retrieving in the following weeks.

Our 2019 calendar is currently quite sparse with volunteers, particular principal coordinators and setters, so if there is a special area in your heart you would like to see a rogaine held, please get onto our volunteer coordinator, Graham Field.
