Joel wins Sydney Trailwalker

Sep 1, 2007

Perhaps even more improbably, Joel recently got together with three blokes from his running club (Jaap Bakker, Richard Green and Jonathan Worswick) and took out the Oxfam Sydney Trailwalker, a 100-km ultramarathon through the bushland of Sydney. The run attracted over 500 teams this year, who run or walk together along some of Sydney’s most spectacular bushland to raise money for Oxfam’s relief work. Joel’s team (The Sydney Striders Foreign Legion) covered the 100 km in a shade under 13 h, finishing more than an hour ahead of the second placed team – the Cosmo Boys from Hong Kong.
