Run/Walk: Sunday Run 5km OR Walk 3.5km + Coffee at Kanteen
Morning Sunday runs are back for summer!
Join in if you're free and want to kick start the day with an easy 5k run and a coffee. This is an easy 5km run where you can choose your own pace. The map above is the running trail.
* Start at the Richmond Boulie Carpark on the Yarra Trail.
* Run along the Northern bank of the Yarra river
* **Cross over at Punt Rd** to the South bank of the Yarra river
* Run along the South bank heading East until you reach Kanteen
We finish at Kanteen for a coffee and/or a snack before slowly walking 1.8km back to the start. The meals at Kanteen are quite good and the nice outdoor area is nicely shaded in summer in the mornings.
My pace varies between 5:50 min/km to 6:20 min/km depending on how I'm feeling. The trail is easy to follow and we all meet at the end so you can choose to go faster or take your time.
If you're not a runner, you can choose to walk and start earlier or cross over at Church Street which is \~3.5km walk and aim to arrive at Kanteen at around 30 minutes after the start - but **message** **me beforehand** to arrange so I don't wait for you at the start if you choose this option.
The start has a convenient car-park and Burnley Station is not far.
**MEETING LOCATION**
Meet at the Richmond Boulie Carpark.

Looking to meet new people, explore nature, and have a good laugh along the way?
This is your perfect Sunday plan! 🎉
We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming Melbourne Social Hike. A welcoming day out where the focus is all about fun, friendships, and fresh air. Whether you come solo or bring a mate, you’ll leave with new connections and memories!
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
🚙 **Carpooling Makes It Happen**
Wilderness Seekers Victoria runs on community spirit and carpooling is a big part of that. Every seat offered means another hiker can join the adventure. Less cars, easier logistics, more fun together.
Carpooling is a great way to start the day by meet new people, share a few laughs, and arrive at the trail together. Drivers, your contribution makes a huge difference, and passengers, your gratitude keeps it all running smoothly. It’s simple, social, and one of the best parts of the Wilderness Seekers Victoria experience. 🚗🌿
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
👉 **Carpool Driver information**
If you’ve got spare seats and don’t mind some company, offering a lift is one of the best ways to kick off the day 🚙💨. It makes the trip more fun, helps out fellow hikers who don’t have a car, and is an easy way to make a few friends before we even hit the trail. Plus, fewer cars means less parking stress and a smoother start for everyone.
For passengers, it’s the easiest way to get to the trail, meet new people and enjoy the ride together instead of travelling alone. In our Wilderness Seekers Victoria community, many people are more than happy to help out those without cars it’s part of what makes these days feel so welcoming and connected.
✨ Best practice: Passengers should try to secure transportation before purchasing a ticket to avoid any last-minute stress.
**Important Carpooling Note**
Drivers and passengers should stick with the arrangements they make. We **do not recommend swapping drivers or cars**after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure **all parties are clearly informed and agree** to avoid confusion.
If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Wilderness Seekers Victoria (and your driver) are **not liable** for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with.
In the transport chat, drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations often major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne.
For this hike, **the nearest station to the trail are** [Mernda ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/63B9Mu6DZeJXdkL4A "https://maps.app.goo.gl/63B9Mu6DZeJXdkL4A")or [Hurstbride ](https://maps.app.goo.gl/g6hs2T9Jotv3Jg6E6 "https://maps.app.goo.gl/g6hs2T9Jotv3Jg6E6")though drivers may choose whichever spot is most convenient for them. Passengers can then join from those locations.

Tassie Climbing Adventures! (Round 3) - EOI (ROC)
To join this trip, visit http://roc.org.au/trips/trip-info/?trip_id=5754 and click 'Join trip' at the bottom of that page.
Splitter dolerite cracks, Beautiful seaside granite, spectacular sport crags, mega mountainous adventures. What more could you want? Tassie has it all.
Once again, I'm putting out the feelers for anyone interested in a week or two of absolutely huge adventures in Australia's most rugged and diverse state: Tasmania.
Connor Mackenzie on "Beowulf" (17), a classic sea cliff traverse in Freycinet National Park. (Alex Holroyd on belay)
___________________________________________________________________________________
For this trip, you must be at minimum a sport leader, and it is highly recommended that you are a trained trad leader with the club. Whilst there is a LOT of sport in Tassie, the real bread and butter is in the amazing trad lines, and it would be hard to centre a trip around purely sport climbing. Do not worry at all if you are not leading above a certain grade, Tassie has something for all!
The plan is to have a week or two to explore what the island has to offer. Bring some cars down on the boat, share the costs between us. The cost will come out to about $500 - $1000 per person depending on how long we go for/how many people will come down.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
This year I am feeling adventurous. The previous two years I spent time mostly exploring the easier to reach places, Mt Wellington, Paradiso, Cataract... (see website for more details - http://roc.org.au/trips/trip-info/?trip_id=5754)

Play 3-Sided Soccer at Albert Park - mixed - social - all levels - all fitness
3 Teams. 3 Goals. Hexagonal Pitch. A game of alliance and betrayal in equal measure.
We are looking for new players and returning players alike to come play a match. Players of any ability, fitness level or background are welcomed - the game is intended to be fun for a Sunday morning rather than super competitive.
If you've never played before, that's okay - the rules are as simple as this:
* There's no offside - roam where you will
* Defend your goal at all costs
* No hands (this is soccer-style football after all)
Come down for 9:00am, we make some balanced teams and warm up for the match starting at 9:15.
Three thirds are played of 25 minutes each so we're usually done by about 11:00am. All fitness and soccer skill levels more than welcome and encouraged!
A note regarding junior players:
We very much enjoy and encourage junior players to come along and play however please be aware of the following:
* As most attendees are adults, all players must be a minimum of 1.5m tall and 13 years of age. Soccer may have incidental contact when contesting a ball, and we would hate for someone small to be injured as a result of running into someone larger than them.
* Any players under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a playing parent or guardian.
How to find us -
We meet on the astroturf pitch near the Baselball and Hockey clubs in Albert Park. The main location we use is called "Dorothy Coleman Field". If we aren't there then there may be a couple of other locations, [as noted on this dynamic map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1JdDwV4AOV5e-xP5d56m16-eu29GlnZQ&usp=sharing) \- generally we will follow in number order\.
