Thanks to all the volunteers who helped make the Tallaganda Boulders rogaine a great success.  The rain even kept away till after the results had been announced and the gear was packed away in record time.  Overall winners were Susie Sprague, Selina Stoute and Heather Logie.  Second overall were women's youth team Sophie Radajewski and Natalie Miller so the girls ruled the roost. 

Full results can be seen here.

A big thank you yet again to Jon Glanville for another superb virtual rogaine, this time south of Lake Burley Griffin and around Red Hill and South Canberra. Jon found even more hidden gems with sculptures, artwork, interesting geology, great views and the obligatory cafes. All of these temptations did not slow down our fastest rogainers with four people getting around the whole course in less than four hours.

Our overall winner was Christopher Bradley perfecting his route to break 3 hours for all controls on his second attempt.

Notable category winners were fourth placed Mens Youth team of Hamish Mcewen and Owen Chenhall; Jonathan Ricks missing only 1 control and winning Mens Veterans; Craig Wisdom winning the Mens Supervets and Ultravets; Amber Mcculloch first in womens; Olivia Yates and Martin Duong as the first mixed team; and Craig, Archie, Kerrie and Zahlia Cowan again the first family team.

There were over 170 finishers of the virtual rogaine and other people who did not officially enter. There were a few people like Christopher and Liz Widdicombe who came back for two or three times.

See the web page for all results.

It's not too late to enjoy this course or any of the other virtual rogaines that have been held over the last few years. All the maps, notes and other instructions are on the Virtual Rogaines web page.

Results are now available for the 2025 Australasian Rogaining Championships on March 15-16.

A warm weekend with temperatures reaching 25 degrees and barely dipping below 15 degrees overnight - impressive for 1400m elevation!
