  • I Love to Challenge Myself
    Kim Collison: I love to challenge myself I am passionate about running and off-road in particular. Fell, trail, ultra - all of them. I guess my main passion is mountains. Being out in nature and exploring comes into it too. I am quite competitive. The race element comes right to the fore for me. I love to challenge myself. Kim Collison attempts to summarise his passion for being out in the mountains. I talked to him just after he had set a new winter Bob Graham Round record this December. He went on to explain his background and how he got into his sport, whilst also giving details of that impressive winter effort. Kim Collison is not a native of Cumbria, although he has lived there for a while now. He grew up in Tring, in Hertfordshire, and ended up at Tring Running Club. His father was interested in sports and in running in particular. Kim enjoyed running from a very early age. As a young kid he was always outside playing. At Secondary School, Hemel Hempstead School, he did a bit of cross country, but says he wasn't so good at team games. ‘One year I remember not getting in the school cross country team’, he recalls, ‘and then going on and winning all the PE lesson cross countries the next year. I was that driven and competitive. I didn't stand out at County level or anything mind.’ He was in the Scouts and did a lot of hiking in the mountains. Through this he was learning navigation, being taken to the Lakes and Snowdonia.

    Maritime de Luna Join TGC New sletter Archive Mere Mortals Group Training Calendar Contact Duathlon January 29, 2014 Dear Evan, It appears that a chilly Winter has gripped most of Pensacola for the start of 2014! Despite the harsh conditions, it has been nice to see that our members are finding ways to get in a workout. There have been a few days of reprieve and it is good to see our athletes enjoying these days. Your TGC leadership is hard at work preparing for the 2014 season. Chris Hicks and Gary Garza are moving swiftly on finalizing our club kit order. Our new look and design was popular, as we have seen a record amount of orders. We look forward to having these distributed in mid-March. Our Youth Race Director, Jim Hagy is busy orchestrating with the City, sponsors, traffic engineers, and community to make the Maritime de Luna Duathlon a premiere youth multisport event in NW Florida. Our Vice President, Alex Bell has been pounding away at our new TGC Bylaws and the necessary process to convert TGC to a 501c3 Tax Exempt status. Tom Henderson, Mere Mortals Chairman is already getting the permits for use of Casino Beach for each Mere Mortals session. Past Prez, Evan Malone, and TGC member Chris Rawson are coordinating the Xterra Wetsuit fitting for our athlete's in March. And yes, your current President, Mindi Straw, has already booked our 2014 End of Season Party!

  • Ware Joggers Duathlon Race Rules – …And Advice
    Ware Joggers Duathlon Race Rules – …and advice. The rules below may, for the novice, seem daunting. Please stick with it, read the whole document and it will all make sense. PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME YOU KNOW THE RULES! Competitors will compete in this Duathlon event comprising of a RUN (on grass), BIKE (on road) and RUN (on grass). You take part in the event entirely at your own risk. We cannot allow any accompanying dogs, unless for reasons of registered disability. Please ask well in advance. Thank you. Age Limits: Competitors must be 18 or over to enter and take part and must also be fully paid-up members of one of the clubs invited. Event organisers are able to amend the course route at any time and without prior notification. Event cancellation will only take place if your safety is at risk. Due to up-front costs we will be unable to make refunds and any residual will be donated to our chosen club charities. What is a Duathlon? A Duathlon is a competition that is composed of running and biking. The usual format for a Duathlon is run-bike-run, meaning you start with a run, then transition to the bike, then transition back to running again. Your time starts when you start the race, and finishes when you cross the finish line. This means that the time it takes you to switch from running to cycling and back again is part of your race time. Is everybody really good? Some people are, some aren't. Just like your local 5K, there is a group of hardcore athletes going for the win, there is a bunch of middle of the pack types, and there are some foundation racers.
