Last night was a trail run with a difference - the Afterglow 21k down in Torquay. It was a fantastic run and event all up, lots of fun dressing up and being among a bunch of others also all dayglowed up 🤩

They have a big emphasis on inclusiveness and were very actively part of the fight against gender-based violence. Based on the a quick glance around, there were seemed to be a bunch of blokes at the start of the race who were completely unaware that women can not feel safe running trails. A good effort on the organisers' parts to get the message out. More at https://www.respectvictoria.vic.gov.au

This was my son's very first event, he walked the 5k Body Positive Stomp and made friends with another walker with the most amazing huge lit up fairy wings.
