Victorian Road Runners Tan Runs

The Victorian Road Runners (VRR) hold a 4 and 8 kilometre time trial at 7:30 am on the first Saturday of every month. Many VRR members are Spartans, and president Jay Fleming has been encouraging our members to wear their singlets on these runs. For those Spartans who don’t know, these runs are well organised, occur on a measured course and have a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Non VRR members are asked to make a gold coin donation – see the links for full details.

The photographs shown below have been gathered due to the efforts of Jane Sturzaker and Helen Myall who was the photographer.
