2018 IAU ASIAN 24 HOUR CHAMPIONSHIPS



A huge congratulations to our Asian Championship team, taking out 2nd place in both the Women’s and Men’s competitions, and to Tia Jones, for her 2nd place in the Women’s individual race. And to all the volunteers who helped across the weekend, including friends and family of the runners, and Rob Donkersloot who was Team Manager, a massive thanks: there’s no doubt that the team was better for your presence.

If you didn’t see the fantastic runner bio’s published on Facebook on the week leading up to the event, here are links to the articles:

For a summary of the event and the results, see this Weekly Report. Rob Donkersloot has produced a short video from the race which really highlights the hard work that went into the race by our representatives.
