AURA Annual General Meeting 28 May 2024 Last night we held our AGM and the new committee is pleased to announce that the following elections for positions took place and here are the results. President – SIMONE HAYES Vice President – CORRINA BLACK Secretary – STEPHEN REDFERN Treasurer – ANNABEL HEPWORTH Governance Officer – MYRON (ZED) ZLOTNICK Director of Events – LISA SHERMAN The last two positions are newly created positions, proposed by the 2023 committee, and were voted on by members last night. We congratulate the new committee after an overwhelming vote of confidence shone through from our members, and I really look forward to working with you all in the coming year. The exciting news is that members voted to go ahead with the landmark name change to AUTRA – a powerful move that will bring cohesion to our sport, bringing unprecedented benefits to our grassroots and elites alike. In due course, when our paperwork is complete, we will be officially known at the Australian Ultra and Trail Runners Association. Members also voted in favour of the changes to the incorporated association’s Rules to include the word ‘trail’ with ultra. This will formally recognise that trail running of all distances will be under the AUTRA umbrella and we will be one united and undivided sport. Ultra and Trail – Together as One. Has a great ring to it hey? #autra #ultrarunning #ultrarunner #trailrunning #trail #ultra #running #runner #australianultrarunning #australiantrailrunning #instarunner #runnerslife #endurance #runnershigh #ultramarathon

For the past year AURA has been in discussion with the trail associations in Australia to look at forming one large federation that recognises both ultra and trail as one. In November 2023 we held a conference to further investigate the possibility of bringing the trail community into our association and what the benefits would be for AURA and its members. What ensued was an overwhelming realisation that this move needs to happen to ensure the longevity of AURA. We saw only positives, and forged ahead with a plan to take AURA into the next decade and beyond as a strong and productive association, whilst still preserving its purpose and rich history which is of the utmost importance to us.

So many options on offer! What are you planning to tackle? The 66km Ultra Relay or Solo, the 25km Mountain Run, the 5km Vertical Kilometre or the 9km Foothills? #aura #weeklyreport #weeklynewsreport #ultrarunning #ultrarunner #ultra #running #runner #australianultrarunning #instarunner #runnerslife #endurance #runnershigh #ultramarathon #kunanyi #kunanyimountainrun #tasmanianrunning #hobart #tasmania

Hey there runners! There are lots of events rolling around over the next few months - hands up if you are doing Kunyani in Tas, or heading to north for Noosa Ultra Trail this weekend (also host of the Australian Short Course Trail Champs), or further north for the Cairns 50? You may be heading to the Blue Mountains for Ridgy Didge, or to Vic for another BYU. Not big enough for you? How about the Down Under 135? Testing your mental strength? Lighthorse Ultra or Dead Cow Gully might be more up your alley. Short trails - Organ Pipes Classic in Tassie. Long Trails - Irrational SOUTH 100 & 200 Miler And don't forget the biggest trail race in OZ, Ultra Trail Australia. And that's just up until May! AURA has a rich history in track and ultras but we also recognise and respect the trail scene, as is shown by the strong presence of Trail races on our events calendar. We can go long and in circles, but we also like to get down and dirty on the trails! Us runners are very versatile, and AURA is too. Trail and Ultra go together - like peas and corn, like burgers and beers (after a run), like (running) shoes and socks - you get the drift. If you are planning your year and beyond, check out our events page https://www.aura.asn.au/upcoming-events and don't miss out on all the member discounts on race entries that are on offer. You get plenty of bang for your buck for your $49 members fee so make use of it and get running! Not a member? What are you waiting for? Unless you don't want to save $$!

It’s been a favourite for trail lovers for decades. Belair National Park is one of Australia’s oldest national parks, established back in 1891, and now it’s become the epicentre for the incredible Belair Marathon. It’s not for faint hearted, with close to 1500m of elevation gain. But it’s an undeniably appreciated environment with stunning lands and scenery. Distances on offer include a 5k, 10k and half marathon, whilst for the ultra runner in us, there’s a 50k. We would love to hear who here is racing at the Belair Marathon this Saturday (2 March)? Hands up!

The inaugural Sri Chinmoy Road 100 is on this Saturday!  So exciting! It’s also doubling up as the Australian 100k Championships, and we want to know if you’re entered and ready to tackle it!  It will be held in and around Commonwealth Park, Canberra on a certified 5km loop on shared pathways alongside Lake Burley Griffin.  There’s still some time to enter last minute if you’re umming and ahhing, you’ve got until 7pm Wednesday (21 Feb) – THAT’S TODAY! – so simply head to au.srichinmoyraces.org for more info. The Sri Chinmoy Road 100 is a great qualifying race if you’re thinking of applying the Australian 100km Team at the World Championships this December. #aura #ultrarunning #ultrarunner #ultra #running #runner #australianultrarunning #instarunner #runnerslife #endurance #runnershigh #ultramarathon #athlete #srichinmoy #srichinmoyroad100 #srichinmoy100 #australian100championships

The Sandman 50 is a 50km even from Old Dunsborough boat ramp to Busselton Jetty and back. The course is entirely on the beach at low tide, with the nominal race line being within 3m of the water’s edge.  Kicks off Saturday, 24 February for solo entrants and teams of two. This is a beautiful run with the majority of it done while the moon is up, and we’d love to hear who from our members is racing. #aura #ultrarunning #ultrarunner #ultra #running #runner #australianultrarunning #instarunner #runnerslife #endurance #runnershigh #ultramarathon #athlete #sandman50 #dunsborough #busselton

🦘Tomorrow’s the day of ADU! The Australia Day Ultra is one of those events so many West Aussies look forward to on the AURA calendar of events. It’s held on what’s considered a flat and fast out-and-back course along the foreshore of Australind, a little town about 175km south of Perth, with options of a 25km, 50km, 75km and 100km. This is one of those really beautiful courses because it’s right along the water, and the start/finish is just a hive of activity every time runners come through. It’s the perfect PB course. Let us know if you’re racing it, and tag us in your Insta shots!

Hysterical Carnage. It’s where crazy meets backyard. Or the other way around.  However you see it, this LOS event is where you can let loose…or lose it. Your choice, really.  Get ready for 6.7km loops over…and over…and over…and over again until one is left to be declared the most hysterical. Loxton, SA. Friday, 17 November.
