Race update: Kosciusko ultra by UTMB

Two weekends ago, our Hungry Runners took on the Mt Kosciuszko Ultra, and what a weekend it was!

This time, it was an all-women crew, and they delivered fantastic performances despite some truly challenging weather conditions.

Julie kicked things off on the 30k course, putting in an incredible effort to claim 3rd in her age group with a time of 3 hours 38 minutes. Brilliant run, Julie!

50km distance:

Emma got a cold days before the event and still managed to run a strong and steady race, finishing in 7 hours 18 minutes, congrats!

Meanwhile, Liz, that you more often see on marathons, proved that her skills translate well to the trails (if you don't mention the training falls). Liz won her age group with a time of 6 hours 21 minutes. Amazing work!

100km ultra (108km):

Charlotte and Leanne stepped up to the 100km challenge, both tackling their first 100km race. They didn’t just battle the distance, they battled the bad weather, storms, heavy rain, and a race stoppage of nearly two hours. Despite these hurdles, they crossed the finish line.

Charlotte completed the race in 17 hours 18 minutes, and Leanne followed in 18 hours 53 minutes. What an achievement!

A huge congratulations to all our Hungry Runners!
