Australia Day26 January 2012Jock Athletic would like to say a very BIG thank you to all those who braved the weather and came down to Cronulla on Australia Day to take part in the inaugural Jock Athletic Running Festival. The day was awesome fun - with approximately 300 entrants taking part across both events, the Jane McGrath Classic (JMC) and the Wanda X-Treme 6. We are happy to report that we were able to raise over $8000 for the McGrath Foundation from proceeds from the JMC. Congratulations to Michael Prince, Australian Triathlon champ, outright winner of the Wanda X-Treme 6 and Laura James, who smashed the women's field! In the Jane McGrath Classic 2.5km Family Fun Run/Walk, our own Jock Campbell came home first in honour of his beautiful mum, who passed away last year after a long battle with breast cancer. Congratulations also to Ciaran Williams who was first in the womens.
