IAU 50k Trophy Cup: Australia has a strong history of representation at this annual event. Since its inception in 2007, we have had seven athletes contest the event. Our sole representative for the 2011 event on 20 August in Assen, the Netherlands, was to be June Petrie. Unfortunately, June was unable to compete in what would have been her 4th Trophy Cup, due to thrombosis in her leg, arising after her overseas flight. Despite the disappointment, June and her husband represented Australia by volunteering on the day. The next staging of the Trophy Cup will be in Italy on 20 October 2012. Qualifying times are 3:20 for men and 3:50 for women and must occur at an IAU labelled 50k event. In Australia, the Canberra 50k was our sole IAU labelled qualifier for 2011.

Congratulations to Marita Eisler, who completed the 100k IAU World Championship 34th of 50 females in a personal best time of 9:05:31 and to Tressa Lindenberg, 36th, in 9:18:11. Andrew Heyden completed the men's race in a personal best of 7:39:35, taking 36th position of 96.

| AURA President Robert Boyce has arrived in the Netherlands for the IAU Medical Conference, AGM, and IAU 100k World Championships where Andrew Heyden, Tressa Lindenberg, and Marita Eisler will be toeing the line for Australia. The Commonwealths 24 hr and trail team will be headed to Wales soon for their events, unfortunately without 24 hour teammate Allison Lilley, who has sustained a running injury. |
| The AURA Executive is pleased to welcome a second State Rep for Queensland, Susannah Harvey-Jamieson. |
