good to see Scotty Hawker get a mention. Spent most of July running in Chamonix and its a magical place. the whole alps is seemingly full of these gnarly fast dudes running for hours at high altitude with huge elevation. For a kiwi to place top 3 in a European event is amazing. Especially one seen as the Olympics equivalent on the sport. Ruth Croft won her event in the same trail running festival.

Will give this a bump.
Really enjoyed the cycling over the weekend. Campbell Stewart (and the whole omnium) was great to watch. We have some real contenders for the Olympics in several categories. Looking forward to the Brisbane event this weekend.
Sailing was good as well. That Burling and Tuke combo go pretty well.
They really need more "sitting down" sports for us to excel at.
