The good folks at Mizuno attended Tuesday night reps recently, and allowed runners to test their wares. Mizuno are also key sponsors of the Oatley Park Fun Run. Runners made the most of the testing opportunities which provide benefits for Mizuno and runners alike. Pictured either side of Jim Owens (third from left) are the reps from Mizuno and JORG runners.

JORG was crowned the No. 1 Team in the City to Surf (Athletic/Sporting Clubs Division) following outstanding performances by Chadi Elashkar, Robbie Neill and Dylan McCuaig-Walton. The trio clocked a combined time of 2:24:17, giving them an almost 2 minute lead over second placegetters, ACTRUN team. To cap this achievement, Dylan was clipped from behind and lost one of his shoes around the half way mark, continuing the race with just one shoe. A host of other JORG members also participated in the event, many recording PBs.

The month of July saw a swag of personal bests, category places, debut marathoners and above all participation by over 50 JORG members in over a dozen events. The Gold Coast Marathon and it's associated events saw 29 JORG members take part with great results and equally enjoyable socialising. This was followed by a strong turnout of up and coming stars at the 4 Junior JORG sessions held at Oatley Park.
The Sydney Harbour 10k, Sutherland to Surf, Hunter Valley Running Festival and the M7 Marathon were just some of the other events in which JORG members participated.
It's obvious that JORG is THE running club to be with!
