The Tuesday Group -- "Ascends" Mt Tennent

The Vets Tuesday Group.

_______________________

This Group is listed in the Training Groups in Vetrunner. Geoff Moore is the training groups co-ordinator.

They never get many solid stories in Vetrunner, but consist of a variety of Vets club members.

They have people from all ilks of the club, and have had co-ordinators of ever changing faces.

Thursday, 30th December 2010, they ventured/walked/climbed to the top of Mt Tennent along the trail that is now well worn.

There used to be an organised run by the mountain running association to the top of Mt Tennent.

I remember it as a very challenging event, because the trail was steep and rocky in a lot of places, and care needed to be taken over its many rises and rocky parts.

This group meets at Black Mountain Peninsula at 9:00 am on Tuesday mornings, partaking of a run/walk for one hour, and then a gathering afterwards for morning tea and eats, where each person brings a plate, and all share in the eats and cameraderie, after the run or walk, and organise their next outing.

The group consists of mostly Vets, but others often join in the gathering.

Next AMRA event on Mt Tennent is on 5th Feb 2011 from Apollo Road to Bushfold Flats & top of the Mt Tennent on the fire fire trail.
However, the front Alpine Walking Track is much more fun, even a little dangerous in places, but it is really good to run or walk or scramble. Have a good 2011, Friar.
