Welcome
Welcome to all Kembla Joggers and new
members to our 2003 winter racing season. This
year is a special one as we celebrate the club’s
30th anniversary. We hope that you will help us
celebrate by participating in as many club events
and activities as you can during the year.
The year ahead should be as action-packed as ever
with something on just about every weekend if
you include ANSW and major funrun events. The
establishment of cross-country circuits at the West
Dapto venue will be a focus for the club as will
the hosting of the Australian Mountain Running
Championships at Mt Kembla in June. Our new
social committee has plenty in store during the
year so keep an eye out for some new things on
the social calendar and try to get involved. And of
course there are the usual KJ road and track
racing programs to keep ticking along.
This is the third edition of the KJ Handbook
thanks to the ongoing sponsorship from Rapid
Cool Airconditioning and all of the Handbook
advertisers. Without this support there would be
no handbook so please reciprocate by supporting
these businesses in return. Last year saw some
great sponsorships come our way, bringing with
them some fantastic benefits to the club, most
notably our new van. We would like to welcome
all of our sponsors back on board again, in
particular our major club sponsor Wests Illawarra
and uniform sponsor BHP Steel.
The Handbook should contain just about all the
information you need to know about the KJs and
what’s on during 2003. Don’t forget there are
plenty more things to discover about the club at
our website which is updated daily and in the club
newsletter ‘The Fox’. Should you still need
assistance please don’t hesitate to contact one of
our committee team who will be only too pleased
to help you out.
Have a great year in 2003 and may many PBs
come your way.
Neil Barnett, President

Instructions for Race Marshalling Duty
Important - please read these instructions carefully prior to turning up to perform race marshalling duty
at a KJ event or other event the club may be providing assistance at.
• All marshals must be financial members of
Kembla Joggers.
• All members of Kembla Joggers must perform
marshalling duty as requested by the Race
Organiser on at least one occasion (usually 2)
throughout each season.
• A form will be distributed at the start of the
season which allows members to nominate their
preferred event(s) for marshalling. If this form
is not returned you will be randomly allocated a
KJ event(s) for which you will be required to
marshal at.
• A letter will be sent to you informing you of
your rostered day. There will be plenty of time
to change the roster day if the nominated race
does not suit. A second letter will be sent to
approximately 1 month before the rostered day
indicating marshalling position, a set of
instructions for that position, a course map and
a list of equipment for use etc.
• It is the responsibility of each member to inform
the Assistant Race Organiser in charge of
marshals of your availability for duty. Failure to
turn up on your rostered day will result in you
not being permitted to compete in club events
until you have fulfilled a marshalling duty.
• On race day marshals should arrive 45 minutes
before race start to enable distribution of high
visibility personal safety equipment, radios and
briefing by the Race Day Marshal Organiser.
Please report to the start/finish area.
• Remember the Marshal Organiser is contactable
by phone so if something unforseen crops up
please let him know that you cannot make it.
• All runners must run on the right hand side of
the road, eg. running facing the traffic, or as
directed by the marshals. However marshals
may be given special instructions to direct
runners to the left side of the road in special
circumstances.
• Marshals cannot stop traffic unless having
undertaken the appropriate RTA approved
training course. Your only power is to stop
runners when it is unsafe to cross the road and
to direct runners. You are encouraged to warn
traffic of approaching runners by way of flags,
signs etc.
• Marshals should not stand in a position which
puts them at risk of being hit by a car or which
could cause a car to swerve or brake
unnecessarily.
• Marshals should report any incidents observed
during the race by informing the Race Organiser
or by filling out an Incident Report Card at the
Recorders Table following the event.
• Drink station rubbish including all discarded
cups should be collected and returned to the
finish area following the race.
• All gear should be returned promptly after each
event including 2-way radios. Please leave the
radios turned ON until they are returned.
• Communication on the course - 2 way radios
must be used only for the purpose intended and
for emergencies. Do not use the radios for
socialising.
Using the radio:
1. THINK about what you need to say.
2. LISTEN to ensure there is no existing
conversation over the radio.
3. PRESS and hold the talk button.
4. SPEAK holding the radio about 5cm from your
mouth - ACROSS the microphone, not into it.
5. RELEASE the talk button. No one can transmit
when you have the button held down.
Radio Protocols
Making a call - say - "to whom you are calling
twice, then identify yourself, come in" eg finishing
line, finishing line this is Joe Bloggs, come in.
Receiving a call - say - "your name, receiving"
Ending a call - say "over" to indicate you expect a
response.
Ending a conversation - say "your name then
OUT" to let the receiver know you have finished.
When you are in your marshalling position, make
a radio check by calling the Race Day Marshal
Organiser.
Do not use the radios unnecessarily. There may be
an emergency on the course and you could delay
any help required. Do use the radios for informing
other marshals of where the leaders and back
markers are and any race progress reports you may
feel will interest spectators at the finishing area.

Athlete Development Fund
The Kembla Joggers recently established a new
athlete assistance scheme to provide help to KJ
members with expenses incurred when represent-
ing the club at state or national level. Such
expenses can include travel, accommodation,
competition fees and other associated costs.
Assistance for training/accredited courses is also
available for coaches and club officials. The
scheme is much more generous than the previous
scheme which it supercedes.
To qualify for assistance the following criteria
must be met. Athletes must be:
• a financial member of both Kembla Joggers
and ANSW.
• be representing Kembla Joggers or ANSW as
far as possible at a national/international
event sanctioned by Athletics Australia.
• have achieved a predetermined qualifying
time/criteria in order to compete.
Applications must be on the official form which is
available from the club secretary or on the KJ
website. Athletes seeking assistance must provide
a detailed schedule of expenses including any
evidence where possible. Funding from other
sources should also be declared. A summary of
actual expenses should be provided upon request
following the trip for which any funding is given.
Funding available is $200 for NSW or Australian
representation interstate and $400 for Australian
representation overseas. Additional discretionary
assistance may be provided above these amounts
- all applications will be considered on their
merits.
Course fees for coach or official training may be
subsidised if that training is determined to be for
the direct benefit of the club. The maximum
funding any athlete, coach or official may receive
in any year is $1000.

Uncle Pete’s Junior Assistance Fund

A new Junior Assistance Fund is now in place
which aims to support any juniors requiring
financial assistance for such expenses as club
fees, ANSW fees, uniforms, shoes, travel etc. The
fund is generously supported by our junior
sponsors Uncle Pete’s Toyworld. Assistance is
irrespective of junior age-category or ability. All
enquiries and any assistance provided will be kept
completely confidential. Please direct any
enquiries to Wayne Montefiore or Neil Barnett.

Beaton Park Scholarship

The Beaton Park Scholarship is awarded annually
around March to one KJ member who meets
certain performance criteria set out by Beaton
Park, is a registered member of ANSW and who
is also a resident of the Wollongong City Council
area. The scholarship provides free access to
Beaton Park Leisure Centre facilities including
gym programs and track use for 12 months. The
scholarship is an initiative of Beaton Park Leisure
Centre and previous recipients have included
Stephen Brown in 2001 and Russell Chin in 2002.

Race Day Information
Parking
Parking is limited at many KJ race venues
particularly at Mt Kembla. The trick is to arrive
early to secure the best spots. Whatever the case,
please ensure you park safely and always lock
your doors.
Race Registration
The Golden Rule - arrive early. We recommend
that you arrive AT LEAST half an hour before the
scheduled race start times regardless of whether
the race is a handicapped or mass start event. That
way you have plenty of time to warm up and
avoid long queues at the race registration tables.
The cutoff time for race registrations is strictly 15
minutes before race start time. Runners arriving
after this time will be started from the
backmarkers position. If you know you are going
to arrive late then it is fine to arrange for someone
else to collect your handicap start time for you.
Otherwise let the Handicapper know prior to the
event.
Your handicap start time will be issued to you on
an adhesive label. Please keep this handy by
sticking it to your shorts etc so that you always
know what time you are due to start the race.
Make sure you are fully familiar with the course
before each race by checking the course maps etc
located on the Notice Boards and elsewhere in the
KJ Handbook.
Warming Up
Take care when warming up. The race may
already be in progress so please keep clear of
other runners who have set off from earlier
handicap start times. As always watch out for
vehicular traffic. The same road rules apply for
warming up as they do during the race - see KJ
Race Rules.
Race Start
A race briefing will commence 15 minutes before
race start time. It is important that you are present
for this as information regarding course condition,
any late changes, hazards etc are announced at
this time.
A gun will usually be fired about 5 minutes before
the clock is started and the first runners head off.
This should give you an idea when you will be
due on the start line. The gun will also be fired
prior to mass start events.
It is always your responsibility to be on the start
line at your allocated handicap start time. It is
advisable to be at the start line about 1 minute
before you are scheduled to start.
Toilets
Permanent toilet facilities are available at all
venues with the exception of Mt Kembla where a
Portaloo will usually be provided. Otherwise at
Mt Kembla you can only use the bushland on the
hill on the northern side of Harry Graham Drive.
The access agreement with Sydney Water does
not allow us to use any other area for this purpose
including any areas along our race routes.
Feeling Unwell?
If you are feeling unwell the week prior to any
event you are best advised to get proper medical
advice before deciding to compete. There is
always a chance that you might be able to fulfil
your marshalling duty commitments if you
contact the marshal organiser beforehand.
If you begin to feel unwell or become injured
during an event it is recommended that you stop
and advise the next available course marshal who
will then call for assistance on the 2-way radio.
Medical
Upon registration KJ members are invited to
inform us of any medical conditions that could
possibly require treatment as a result of their
running activities. This is optional and all
disclosures are kept entirely confidential.
The KJs have a fully equipped and comprehensive
First Aid kit which is available at all KJ events in
the vicinity of the start/finish area. Only persons
with Senior First Aid qualifications should use the
kit and a list of names of authorised users is
provided inside the kit.
Drink plenty of water before every event. Start
hydrating early on the day of the event and from
about one hour before the race is due to begin,
take frequent sips of water to maintain fluid

allow strollers at these events if conditions on the
day are considered unsuitable. Strollers should
not be used for racing and must be of a suitable
design for on-road use, ie fixed wheels and brake.
Strollers should start from the back of the field for
mass starts and from the front for handicap starts.
Race Etiquette
Pacing other runners in trophy events is generally
not encouraged. Keep an eye out for your fellow
runners and provide encouragement where
possible. Keep smiling and have fun.

Special Events 2003
The KJs are involved in a number of special
events throughout the year which have become
key social as well as competitive occasions. We
encourage all members to get involved and enjoy
the camaraderie of these events. Here are a few
you might like to consider:
Sydney Half Marathon
Scheduled for Sunday 25th May, the KJs will be
organising a bus for those wishing to compete or
cheer on the KJs from the sidelines. The bus
leaves very early (usually 4.30am) from Wests
Illawarra, Unanderra and returns by mid-
afternoon. Following the race you will be free to
spend a couple of hours exploring the Rocks
Markets or perhaps enjoy a counter lunch in one
of the nearby historic Pubs. The cost for the bus is
$15 per person and it is essential to make an early
booking to secure a seat.
City to Surf
Like it’s companion event, the City to Surf, on
Sunday 10th August, is always a most enjoyable
social day out. The KJs will be taking two buses
with a departure time usually at 6.30am from
Wests Illawarra and picking up through the
Another flying start to the Puckeys race
28
northern suburbs. Following the great race you
are free to visit the cake shops, ice-creameries etc
along Bondi’s famous Campbell Parade. Or just
do what many KJs do and partake in the BBQ
celebrations on the balcony of the Bondi Icebergs
Club overlooking Australia’s most famous stretch
of sand. The bus returns mid-afternoon. Again
seats go quick so book your place early. Friends,
family and workmates are most welcome to join
us. Cost is $15 per person.
Hope & Charity Relays
Formerly the Hopetown Relays, the KJs have
developed a proud tradition in this event which
used to run between Chatswood and Wyong. The
event now consists of 10 legs either 5, 10 or 15km
in distance and is held at its new venue within the
Homebush Olympic Park. The KJs enter teams in
the State Championship categories for both male
and female but also enters teams in the Running
Clubs section. This means that KJs of all abilities
can come along and compete in one of our many
teams. It’s another great social day with much of
the time spent cheering on your fellow KJ team
members. The date for this is Sunday 31 August.
Club Challenge Cancer Council 24hr Relay

Handicapping & Pointscore
Everything you wanted to know about the Kembla Joggers
Handicapping & Pointscore System but were afraid to ask !
Q. What is the KJ Handicapping
System?
The aim of the handicapping system is to place
runners of all abilities on an equal footing in any
KJ race to which it is applied. Before each event
our computer program calculates a handicap time
for each member based on times previously
recorded during the current season. Your handicap
time ensures that slower runners than yourself are
given a head start while quicker runners give you
a head start. Handicap times are calculated so
that, in theory, all runners should finish precisely
at the same time. This means that regardless of
your ability you have as much chance of crossing
the finishing line in first place as any other runner
in the club - it just depends on how well you run
on the day.
Q. How is my handicap time
calculated?
First, the computer works out your predicted time
for the race, ie the time you are expected to run.
This is calculated using the two "best times" you
have recorded during the current season. A time
you record becomes one of your "best times" if it
happens to be quicker than your predicted time
for that event. These times are then used to
calculate your predicted time in following races
until bettered again.
Special scaling factors are used to convert your
predicted time from one distance to another
taking into account factors such as distance and
course difficulty. Your handicap time, ie time you
start the race from, is calculated as it relates to the
slowest runner. So if the slowest runner's
predicted time is say 56:00 (handicap = 0:00) and
your predicted time is 44:00, then you will have a
handicap time of 12:00. Your handicap time in the
first 2 events of the season may be calculated
using times recorded in the previous season.
Q. Joe Bloggs ran a quicker time
than I did in the last race. Why did
he get a head start on me in the
next race?
Although recording a quicker time than you in the
previous race, it is quite possible that Joe, like
yourself, failed to run quicker than his predicted
race time. Even if he did, your "best times" may
still be considered quicker than Joe's.
Consequently Joe will still manage to get a head
start on you until he records race times which
make his predicted time quicker than yours. If you
think that your handicap time is incorrect or
unfair feel free to discuss it with the handicapper.
But please remember, the handicapper's decision
is always final.
Q. I have finished near the rear of the
field for a number of races. Why?
It is possible that in some previous race you have
recorded a very respectable time which is now
used to calculate your handicap time. Maybe you
are now having trouble retaining this good form
or perhaps you have been injured or sick.
Whatever the case feel free to discuss it with the
handicapper if it is bothering you
Q. What if I’m returning from illness
or injury?
If you are concerned this will affect your form
you are entitled to apply to the handicapper to be
re-handicapped until such time that you regain
form. However during this time you are not
entitled to accumulate race points or win any
trophies based on handicap performance.
Q. Can I run off a different handicap
time if I want to?
As you would expect you are not permitted to run
off an easier handicap than you have been given
but you are quite welcome to run off a harder one
providing you advise the handicapper first.
33
Q. Are race times recorded in
non-pointscore events used
for handicapping other races?
No. This includes all alternative shorter races,
summer series races, relays, funruns etc.
Therefore you can break world records in these
races if you like without them having any impact
on your handicap. However if the only race you
have competed in is one of these events then we
will use that time until you finish a senior
pointscore event.
Q. Are all races handicapped?
No. Generally shorter events under 7km and the
Half Marathon are mass start races. The computer
program later calculates your position as if the
race had been handicapped and awards points
accordingly.
Q. What if I run much quicker than
I was predicted to do?
A small points penalty deduction may apply to
competitors who run much quicker than their
predicted time. The time you do this by before a
penalty applies varies with race distance, eg for
8km the buffer is usually 2:00. This means if you
are predicted to run say 32:00 for 8km, any time
you record down to 30:00 is without penalty.
However a small penalty will apply for times
recorded by you quicker than 30:00, ie more than
2:00 quicker than your predicted time. The
penalty is deducted from normal points awarded
to you for that race. This is not designed to
penalise you for improvement, rather to
discourage the occasional runner who
intentionally improves over the season from a low
base in order to accumulate maximum points.
Q. How do I qualify for trophy
winning events?
To win any trophy awarded to first across the line
on handicap in the Hangover Handicap, AC
Mitchell Memorial or Tony McMichael Memorial
events you must have competed in at least 3 club
events during the current winter/summer season.
This does not apply to trophies awarded to the
first male and female home such as in the Half
Marathon. Other conditions may sometimes
apply.
34
Q. How are points awarded for the
Club Pointscore?
Points are awarded on an incremental basis
proportional to the number of finishers in each
race. First across the line on handicap receives
250 points and last 50 points. For example, if
there are 100 finishers, the number of points will
decrease by 2 for each place, ie 1st = 250, 2nd =
248, 3rd = 246, and so on. If there are 50 finishers
points will decrease by 4 for each place etc. First-
time runners are allocated 50 points for their first
event. Alternative shorter races and relays are not
included in the pointscore. A similar system is
used for the Junior Pointscore. Elite pointscore
points are awarded as follows: 10 points (fastest),
9 points (2nd fastest) etc, and 1 point (10th
fastest).
Q. How many races count towards
the pointscore?
All pointscore races are used in the provisional
pointscore posted on the club noticeboard at each
event. The final Winter Pointscore released at the
end of the season on Presentation Night is
determined by eliminating the worst 3 scoring
races for each competitor during the Winter
Series. These can include races where you failed
to attend and received no points at all.
Q. Do I receive points for marshalling
duties?
Yes. 180 points are awarded for the first
compulsory marshalling duty and 150 points if
you are required for a second time during the
season.
Q. Where can I check my Pointscore
tallies?
All pointscores will be posted on the club
noticeboards before each race and on the club
website.
Q. What if I suspect an error in my
pointscore tally ?
All care is taken to provide an accurate pointscore
for each runner however occasionally an error or
omission may occur. Please notify the club
handicapper either by phone or on race days
should you suspect an error.

Illawarra Regional Athletic Facility - Beaton Park
Some important considerations when
using the track....
1. Supervision
People using the facility on a casual basis do so
without direct supervision from Beaton Park
Leisure Centre Management. If you want advice
on how to best use the facility, please see
reception for athletic clubs and contact names.
Any athlete wishing to use the track on any of the
following scheduled club competition days, must
first obtain permission from the designated club
to do so. Athletics Wollongong (Wednesday
evening from 5.30-8.30pm), IBS (Sunday
afternoons from 1.00-5.00pm) & Wollongong

are 7mm (9mm for long and high jumps).
Starting blocks can only be used at the
100m/200m and 400m start positions and then
only those blocks provided by the centre.
5. Priority Booking & Lane Use
Kembla Joggers have a priority track booking on
Thursday evenings from 6.30-8.00pm. During
this time we have priority use of lanes 1,2,3. KJs
should, therefore, use these lanes for warming up
and racing.
At all other times for training use only lanes 1,2,3
for intervals >400m, lanes 4,5,6 for intervals
<400m. Refer to the sign at the track for further
details on lane use. Please comply with these
arrangements, which allows many users to safely
train on the track.
6. Track Etiquette
Track etiquette on training nights demands that
athletes should be aware of other track users.

the same lane and approaching from behind. Always the clown, Derek Moriarty, does his bit at the

After hosting the very successful NSW Road
Relay Championships in Wollongong last year the
KJs will take the next step and host our very first
national championship event in 2003 with the
Australian Mountain Running Championships.
The titles will be held on 21st June at Kembla Hts.
This will be preceded by the NSW titles at the
same venue in March.
A number of different distances will be run from
40
Rd and returning along the seaside cycleway past
North Beach, Belmore Basin, Wollongong
Lighthouse and Wollongong City Beach.
The race records are held by Sydney athletes
Damon Harris (14.48) and Liz Miller (16.20). The
course is “AA Certified Accurate”.
To be able to make the event such a success the
KJs need the support of as many club members as
possible for marshalling, pre-race setup, late
entries, age-category tables, timekeeping, data
entry etc. Please let us know if you are able to
volunteer some of your time. Call Mark Everton if
you can assist on 42845379.
The KJs would like to thank all sponsors and
supporters for making this great event possible.
The proceeds of the Fitness Five have been
directed to local charities since the event was first
held in 1990, raising almost $50,000 in total.
Charities to benefit have included Camp Quality,
the Children's Ward Appeal, Ebony House, Cram
House, the Beaton Park Grandstand Fund and
Wollongong Hospital Oncology Ward. The 2003
Fitness Five will support the Beta-Imager Appeal.
4km for junior womens to 12km for open mens.
Different races will be held for veterans and
womens categories. The start and finish will be
from Mt Kembla lookout and will run uphill along
Cordeaux Rd prior to ascending Mt Burelli along
the State Recreation Area escarpment track. The
open men will complete this tough loop 3 times
resulting in a total elevation gain of 660m and the
open women 440m over the 2 loops. The veteran
men and women will compete on an 8.4km out
and back course for a total elevation gain of 450m.
KJs registered with ANSW are able to compete in
either event. A race for non-registered runners
will also be staged as the first event of each
program.
The club will require volunteers to help stage this
event. Please call Neil: 42726818 to offer your help.
Entry forms available from the KJ website.
Social Events
Presentation Night
The KJ’s annual Presentation Night is easily the
biggest social occasion of the year. This event will
be held on Saturday 1st November with the exact
cost to be advertised in The Fox later during the
season. Most of the club awards are announced on
the night including the winners of the club
pointscores, Most Meritorious (Golden Boots),
Athlete’s Athlete Award, Club Person of the Year
and KJ Medals. Children are also welcome. A
great way to finish off the season. This year we
ask everyone to come in club colours!!
Annual Fundraiser Night
To fund the KJ’s new Athlete Assistance Fund an
annual fundraiser night will be held at Wests
Illawarra on Saturday 26th July. This year we
might make spice it up and make it a fancy dress
night with special prizes for best/worst dressed.
Check out the Fox for more details.
KJ Running Weekend
The KJ’s annual Running Weekend at the Blue
Mountains will be on again this year. The date and
cost will be advertised in the Fox throughout the
year. The weekend starts on a Friday evening and
finishes up after lunch on Sunday. The
accommodation is at the lovely Jemby Rinjah Eco
Lodge near Blackheath. The weekend is usually
held in early November, consisting of many social
activities including bush walking, shopping, cafes
etc during the day plus maybe a few scenic
morning runs and a fun relay on the Saturday
afternoon.
Event BBQs
A few events including the 8/4km at Cataract
Dam in May and the 5km at Cordeaux Dam in
September are morning events which will be
followed by a BYO BBQ for the whole family.
The Cordeaux Dam event is the last of the Winter
Series and will also feature the KJ Junior
Presentations from about 12.30pm.
KJ Events
Most KJ events are social gatherings in
themselves with most runners staying behind after
the race to enjoy the free tea/coffee and bickies, or
even meet at the old Mt Kembla Pub after the Mt
Kembla events. The ANSW events are also great
social occasions and it is usually here that you
might be lucky enough to sample some of Hazel’s
famous cakes under the KJ tent.
The Brewery Bash
In December we will have the annual Brewery
Bash event. This KJ summer race will be followed
by drinks and nibblies at the Five Islands Brewery
at the WEC. A great way to enjoy a lovely
summer evening on the forecourt at Wollongong
City Beach.
Ski Weekend
What else do lots of KJ runners love to do during
winter other than running around Mt Kembla?
Skiing and snowboarding of course!! Look out for
the promos in The Fox for this trip. The weekend
will probably be in August with an early bird
booking and deposits required in May. Hopefully
accommodation will be on the snow!!
Camping Weekend
Towards the end of the school holidays in January
2004 there will be a camping weekend for the
whole family. Venue yet to be decided. There will
be jogging, swimming, mountain bike riding,
surfing, fishing, socialising and spotlighting the
local wildlife (don’t dare feed them!) with the
kids at night.
Family Fun Day
In January the annual KJ Family Fun Day will be
held. In the past this has been held at the
Jamberoo Recreation Park. This has not yet been
planned for 2004 but could possibly be at
Australia’s Wonderland. Keep an eye on The Fox
towards the end of this year. Bring a picnic lunch
and have a great day of fun.
Junior Skating Day
A skating day at the Woonona Skating Rink will
be held for the Flying Fox brigade some time after
the Junior Presentation Day so the juniors can
unwind and have a bit of fun at the end of the
winter season. Keep an eye on Junior Pages in
The Fox for the cost and date. Maybe some adults
would like to come and have a go!!

Theatre Night
For all you theatre goers, a trip up to Sydney to
see “The Lion King” at the Capitol Theatre will
be happening in October/November, should be a
great night out. If you have any further
suggestions please let us know.
Friday Feasts
About once a month we have planned a night out
at a different restaurant around Wollongong. They
will each have a different cuisine, eg Thai,
Mexican, Indian etc. Check each Fox for exact
details. If you have any suggestions or
recommendations please let us know.

All the info you need on the club is available on

buttons to race results, photo galleries, records,
The Fox on-line, race programs and much more.
There is a great search facility and why not order
your next club clothing purchase on-line. Results
from road and track events are posted as soon as
possible after each race. The site is regularly
updated with the latest club news and there are
links to many other running related sites. Besides
all this, a wealth of information on everything else
to do with the club can be found. Members are
encouraged to send stories, results and inform
ation for inclusion on the site. Brendan Scollary

brendan@spiderwebdesigns.com.au Ph 42953424.
The Fox
The KJ’s official club newsletter The Fox is
distributed to all financial KJ members every 2
months. Each issue is distributed at the next
available club event after publication. Members
attending that event will be assumed to have
picked up a copy. Members who provide an email
address upon registration will have each issue sent
electronically unless indicated otherwise. Those
members who are not at the race will have a copy
mailed out to their home address.
The Fox usually contains a President’s Report,
Junior News, Race Reports (both road and track),
birthdays, recipes, stories from members, a list of
upcoming events, Peter’s Pages (an insight into
the day-to-day activities of KJ members) and a
contact list.
Input from KJ members is very welcome and can
be presented in any format for inclusion in
upcoming issues. Material can be sent via email,
surface mail or by hand to any Fox subcommittee
member or to the Editor of The Fox at
cstocker@csc.com.au.
Six issues of The Fox are planned for 2003 and
will be distributed at the end of every second
month, ie February, April, June, August, October
and December. The deadline for each issue will be
the 7th of that month.
Email Information Service
If you provide your email address upon joining
the club each year you will be added to the KJ’s
email information service. The week before each
event you will be sent a reminder about that
particular race and also if any late changes apply.

from time to time. Please let us know promptly if
your email address changes.
Email for club distribution can be sent to

Each week in the Advertiser sports pages a
column called “Track and Field” appears with the
KJ’s writing the article every third week. The two
other local athletics clubs write the article on the
other weeks.
Illawarra Mercury & Sunday Tele
All KJ results are sent to the Mercury and Sunday
Telegraph for publication in the Sports Results
columns which precede the sports pages. There is
no guarantee when the results will appear but we
are informed that they are published at the first
opportunity that space becomes available.
