2019 'AROUND THE BLOCK' 400M RACE WINNER
Our 400m 'Around the Block' race saw Charlie hold off twenty other Block Athletes, as he cruised to victory in the one lap sprint event. Charlie's newly
discovered determination paid off, as
he was a convincing winner on the day and took home our unique athletics track shaped award. This win topped off an excellent week for Charlie, who again improved his performances at his school athletics carnival.

PILATES @ BLOCK ATHLETICS!
We had the privilege of hosting 'Hockeyroo' Sophie Taylor at Block in July, who led us through an amazing Pilates mat session. Sophie works with our good friends www.bestbody.com.au and was kind enough to get our Sunday morning session started with some great new exercises!

THE 2019 INAUGURAL BLOCK GIFT
Block Athletes got into the Easter 'Stawell Gift' spirit competing in Block Athletics very own Gift. Wearing traditional pro running lane colours; Red, white, blue, yellow, green and pink, 3 heats were tightly contested with the top two from each progressing to the final which was held under lights. The final was a close race, except for Chace who appeared to find some extra speed just in time to take out the Inaugural Block gift for 2019. Well done Chace on picking up your first Gift race sash as the front marker wearing pink. Congratulations to Elsie, Eva, Ethan, Imogen and Lara for all making this years final. The squad are already talking about the 2020 Block Gift ...
