Hi CLAC families,
I just want to say that everyone involved from this club should be very proud of what was achieved on the weekend at Doncaster. The results were fantastic from all our athletes and I couldn’t be happier with what you all achieved. Thank you once again to all the parents out at the meet with you all helping out and doing such a marvellous job things went tremendously smoothly. The amount of fun and smiles had by everyone of our club was amazing.

Hi CLAC families,
Well the weekends running has again come and gone and well done to all who ventured out into true winter conditions on Saturday at Marg Lewis reserve. The conditions were cold, wet and slippery but it was great to see lots still out there and improving more in the elements.
Hi CLAC families,
Well Saturday certainly again turned in some weather for us. Luckily the rain held off during the races and still good times were run in slippery conditions. Congratulations to all who again came out in the cold for a run. Just remember you all running machines that can glide over mud!!
What a start to the day – conditions on entry to the reserve at cockatoo was fogged in and I think a lot of runners were just shivering at the sight even before getting out of the cars!! For the brave souls who ventured out into the conditions, what an experience it was. The course proved to be new and exciting with conditions such as well- fun hills, mud, puddles, creek crossings, logs and slippery forest trails. Even with all this most agreed that it was fantastic fun and the atmosphere was high spirited by all. Having a BBQ after the run really topped the day brilliantly, although I think most of the kids will tell you it was the amazing amount of lollies!!
