Calling all past Colac competitors

This year marks the 20th running of the Colac 6-Day race at Memorial Square in Colac, Victoria. As we all know it is now called the Cliff Young Australian 6-day race.

This year it is being run from the 20th to the 26th Nov.

It has certainly had it's ups and dowsn over the years, but the race has survived and has only got bigger and bigger in the last few years with a number of improvements being instigated over the years.


This year the 6-day Committee is planning on inviting as many past runners back to the race to compete and come to the Re-union that is planned for this year. So if you are a Past runner at Colac please consider taking part or if you know someone that is a past runner please forward this email to them. We are also looking for new runners to take the 6-day challenge at Colac? Are you up to the 6-day challenge?


The main web site for the event is http://sixdayrace.org.au/colac/index.php

There will also be information available at http://www.coolrunning.com.au/ultra/colac/ or http://worldultranews.blogspot.com/


If you need further information please email myself on ultraoz@iprimus.com.au or Bill Sutcliffe on billnbev@dodo.com.au

I will be there as Race Commentator this year and I'm really looking forward to meeting all the competitors and see them do there BEST.

Will follow this blog with interest. LL
