Don’t fear those muddy puddles during The Snake Plains. Running straight through them not only helps prevent track widening, it’s also quicker and more fun!

FIND YOUR FEET are serving up some great Tassie trail experiences, including the brand new Trail Running Academy. For more information, check out the Find Your Feet Tours website: www.findyourfeettours.com.au/We love sharing our experiences and knowledge! Trail running is booming in Tasmania, with more and more of us heading towards the hills and dales to explore. Events are popping up too. For many of us, trail running is something we have learnt through trial and error, realising only after a stumble that perhaps, 'I might not repeat that again'. So, we are motivated to bring you Tasmania's inaugural Trail Running Academy! We would absolutely love for you to join us for three days of playing and growing wilder in North East Tasmania!
Follow the link for all the details, and tag any trail running buddies you think might be interested!

This was one I was definitely looking forward to but thanks to Covid-19 I had to pull out. Hope next year looks better and I can tackle this
Let's hope Snake Plains track has dried out a bit by then. The mud on the track was like a vacuum today - it eat my shoe 😂😂 Took me a while to get it back on my foot.
Don’t forget, runners who successfully complete all events in the series (only 3 events this year) receive a participation award. In 2020 it’s a 2XU run cap. Will you claim one?

Things are heating up in our race for the King & Queen of kunanyi. 25 boys and 8 girls have completed our first 2 events this year and remain in contention. Who will turn up at ‘The Snake Plains’ to vie for the dolerite throne?

Hi Grace, Alexandra & I have been following you & your movement & your determination to make a positive difference & make the world a better place via the platform you have developed & managed with diplomacy, love & humanism. You have matured into a gracious & compassionate young woman like your Mum. Alexandra is happy & fulfilled & working as a nurse in Melbourne & in love with a kind & lovely young man who loves & cares for her deeply. They are busy renovating a house, as her partner John is a builder. Alexandra has evolved beautifully into a kind & caring young woman. Alexandra is also homesick. I will make a donation to your cause on behalf of my family because your cause needs attention & articulate & active women & men like you & Eloise. Let your Mum know I intend to make contact with her shortly & hopefully catch-up with you to. My lovely Dad died of old age nearly two weeks ago & I miss him so much. Alexandra adored her Poppy. We all did because he was so kind & gentle. Keep up the good work. I have a story I would like to share with you that has been a dark secret in my life. Well done young lady. Toni XXOO 🏃♀️🐎🌈😆
