Friday April 20 saw 5 team of 4 dedicated people from Health In Motion Fitness participate in the 100km Melbourne Trailwalker event.
The Event raises $$ for Oxfam and is an amazing challenge for event the fittest of athletes.
The 100km is a challenging course starting at Wheelers Hill, travelling through the Dandenong Ranges (Lysterfield, Olinda, Belgrave) and finishing in Wesburn, near Warburton. Anyone who has visited the area knows that it is far from flat!
Each of the teams did an amazing job of the course, especially considering for most it was their first time doing the event. All of the teams finished under 28 hours – a great achievement considering the difficulty of the course. Final times and placings were:
Running Wild (Heather, Sarah, Shane & Rod) : 16 hours 1 min – 27/745
Victorious Secret (Alona, Karly, Pat & Naomi):21 hours 59 min – 104/745
Buns of Steel (Kate, Hamish, Donna & Paul): 23 hours 24 min – 163/745
Harry Trotters (Sharon, Dermot, Ian & Jonno): 25 hours 26 min – 235/745
Odd Man Out (Andrea, Grant, Belinda & Brett): 27 hours 54 min – 327/745
A very big congrats to all of the teams and a huge thank you to all who supported us, donated to us and who cheered us along on the day!!
