Traralgon harriers and the upper murray challenge
THE UPPER MURRAY CHALLENGE“BLUE ROCK RE-VISITED”
The teams are not exactly the same because the Burgess family is moving away which is quite sad but we all hope they are moving onto bigger and better things. So, back to the story, Mark and Kim will be doing the bike leg for their respective teams and Linda and I will be doing the paddle. Our new runners are Bruised Salisbury for the men and Ian Twite for the women. Thank you Bruce and Ian, we salute you. Now all you nasty people that have been calling Twitey a girl behind his back can now look him in the eye and call him one because it’s now official, Twitey is a girl, it say’s so on the entry form. Bruised and Twitey had a great clash at “King of the Mountain” with Twitey taking out the honors, only just, so this should be a grudge race to remember. MM hopes they run each other into the ground, with the Melbourne Marathon only a week away it’s probably his only hope of beating them. |

I have also received an anonymous letter in which the writer claims that the men’s team was sabotaged at Blue Rock. This explains everything, Mark’s puncture, the horse mysteriously falling over and my Kayak turning turtle. I have turned the letter over to the police who have promised me there will be a full investigation. Well they said they would be in touch, well, OK, he told me to P… off. The men’s team has a big advantage, I have done the paddle before so I know the way, Linda could get lost, Bruised has completed the run as well and is coming back to do it again which just proves what you have all been saying behind his back……………….Mark is teaching Kim how to fix a puncture and is helping to set up her bike so if she follows his instructions she should be right out of the race. |
This is not an event for the faint hearted; see the picture above of me on one of the calmer patches of river during last years paddle. If you don’t believe it’s me just ask Barry Higgins, it’s his boat and I am sure he will recognize my paddling style.

"The canoe kayak training centre will provide state-of-the-art facilities and equipment that will allow our athletes to begin on a level playing field with the best athletes in the world," said Steve Giles, former paddler and Olympic medalist.
Rebel Formula One carmakers risk being kept out of the decision-making process unless they sign up for the 2008 championship by the end of this month, the sport's governing body said Wednesday.
A fitness health club can be the perfect solution for those people who are keen to exercise and mingle with others at the same time. Fitness clubs have the added benefit of providing social interaction while burning the calories and increasing your muscle mass.
The controversy over drug use in athletics has also led to Senator John McCain offering help from a Legislative level. Major League Baseball and the International Olympic Committee are continuing investigations and seeking out possible reform to existing policies relating to the use of steroids and other drugs.
To begin with it is important that athletes of all sports stay on a strengthening program at least three times a week. The lifting should include all body parts, but should also be sport specific.
Controversy continues to swirl around the facts and assumptions about creatine. What is creatine? What part does it play in conditioning and strength training? Are some, any or all of the claims made on its behalf true, partly true, or altogether false?
The greatest athletes of all time.

Summer sports and conditioning activities can quickly evaporate in the hot summer sun if athletes do not properly hydrate themselves before, during and after a workout. Without proper hydration, the body can lose water and essential elements and run the risk of kidney problems or even death.
