A race between star crossed housemates in division 7.

Sat 09:31 . 1x 📷 . Posted by Elentári Berryman

One thing about IB which always remains true - is the sheer number of very interconnected relationships within Inward Bound. For example - even in the committee, Martin, Kaz and Mia (and maybe more…?) will be cheering on a special someone whilst helping out at Endpoint. Some might call it a conflict of interest - it’s just norm here… Read more.

Div 5 and Div 7 converge, Ursies 7 in the lead

Sat 08:30 . Posted by Elentári Berryman

Division 7

Ursies is still leading Div 7 significantly, catching up to Lodge 5 and Div X 'Trail Boys'. Lodge 7 are looking good with the north route, but they'll need to hustle quite seriously to catch Ursies, who are about to reach the three-way intersection at Monga Lane and Sawyers Ridge Rd… Read more.

Division 7

Ursies are looking strong in the lead after being the first to depart Drop. Johns, Wamburun, and Griffin aren't far behind on the same route. This route, turning onto Granite Bluff Forest Road, is one of the shortest, but does have a bit of extra climb… Read more.

Griffin 1 are actually too fast. They are about to intersect with the Div 7 cohort, with first contact with BnG. This should be the final push they need to get to the finish (maybe before Spectators???)… Read more.

Commentator Introduction: Elentári Berryman!

Sat 06:22 . 1x 📷 . Posted by Toby Kitchen

Division 7

From running skeptic to running for Wamburun x3, Elentari has moved on from coaching (and from begging other people to run for Wamburun) to becoming a committee member. Owner of many a ‘Here for the Women’s Race’ T-Shirt, she’s naturally 2025’s Inclusion and Outreach Coordinator. Endlessly proud of her ‘wambabies’ and ex-college’s growing IB culture, she’s here to firsthand ensure they receive equal coverage. Allergic to flat trails and powerhiker to the core, she’ll be very impressed by any colleges tackling the hills and having the most fun with their route possible (picnic breaks included). … Read more.

I'm having the best time talking to Div 7 and we hope we've got an audience (Tom in Denmark, Nicola (B&G) says you better be watching as it's midday over there). Annabel (YKB) is sleepy and Kyle (YKB) says things are going swimmingly, and gestured to look at his watch before remembering he is blindfolded. … Read more.

Division 7

It's lights out here in isolation as Div 7 tries to get in a quick nap before their all-night bus journey. A few runners brought books (clever!) to entertain themselves but otherwise it's silent with occasional whispers.

Turtle Firetrail Exclusion

Fri 10:00 . Posted by Course Setters

Race announcement

From Jack Larkin: The course setters are disappointed that Turtle Firetrail is not providing yet another route choice, but runners should be happy that this firetrail is excluded as it is now essentially a glorified bush bash! Indeed, "Turtle" is an apt name for this trail as it represents the maximum speed you can travel on it… Read more.
