A big day at the Burnie10, but no race for me this year 🎤 Caught up with race winner Ed Marks, as well as Matt Ramsden and Luke Hince, and the women’s winner Georgie Grgec - who’s heading home with the Burnie10 course record AND the New Zealand national record 🇳🇿🔥

Thanks to all four for stopping for a chat and good luck to the guys at Zatopek! Another great edition of the Burnie10 this year. The organisers do a great job 👏

PERTH RUNNING FESTIVAL ELITE FIELDS ARE IN 👀🔥

This Sunday, some serious talent takes to the streets of Perth before finishing inside Optus Stadium — and there are plenty of storylines worth following.

🌍 International firepower in the Marathon
Kenya’s Dominic Ngeno headlines the men’s field with a 2:06:37 PB, alongside Japan’s Ryoma Takeuchi (2:08:20), who finished 4th at Gold Coast earlier this year.

On the women’s side, Antonina Kwambai brings a 2:23:20 PB and arrives fresh from finishing 2nd at the 2026 Gold Coast Marathon.

🏆 WA titles up for grabs
The Marathon also doubles as the 2026 WA State Marathon Championship. Matt Smith, 2nd at PRF last year, leads the local men’s charge, while four-time Perth Marathon champion Nera Jareb is one to watch in the women’s race.

⚡ Ramsden returns
Matt Ramsden is back on the course where he ran the 64:11 Half Marathon course record in 2023 — this time arriving after wins at both the 2026 Perth City to Surf and Adelaide City-Bay 12km. Can that record go again? 👀

🔥 And keep an eye on the 10K…
Last year’s runner-up Max Shervington returns, while our very own Dean Menzies drops down to the 10K carrying a 2:17:41 marathon PB, Australian Masters M35 record and an Australian Marathon Championships silver medal.

After chatting with Elite Athlete Coordinator Sam Maxwell on this week’s podcast, we’ve got a bit more insight into the athletes, the recruitment behind the field and some of the storylines that could make Sunday interesting.

City to Bay 2026 - 4th/34:50. Staying healthy has been a major focus this Winter, have raced sparingly but made them count. Excited to see what we can do in Melbourne next month and on the track later this year. Massive thanks as always to Coach @rileycocks_ for his guidance and the environment he’s created
