Tell us who you are, who you run with? And how long have you been running for?
I’m Ben, I run for Eureka Athletics Club in Ballarat and have been running with them for a good part of 10 years.
Why do you run?
I think the main motivation for my running would have to be the friends I’ve made along the way and all the different places running takes me.
What motivated you to take on your chosen race this year?
I’ve been wanting to do the Half Marathon for a few years now and thankfully this year everything has gone well leading up to the race.
Do you have a goal?
GOR is a tough course but the goal will be to be in a position to win.
What’s your favourite SHYU?
My favourite SHYU would have to be one of the older ones. I had the Alphafly in the matching colour as well as the Vaporfly still so it has definitely gotten a workout over the past few years.
Racing as part of Team SHYU, what does this mean to you?
I’m excited to be apart of Team SHYU and compete hopefully for a podium finish. I’m excited to race well and look good while doing it.
