2015 Annual Awards Dinner at UTS Aerial Club
MAY 18, 2015
Thank you to all the UTS Norths Athletics Club members and their guests who attended the Annual Awards Dinner. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners on the night, there were a lot of great performances throughout the year and it was very tight to chose in all the categories.
A big thanks to Ron Bendall for doing a great job as MC, Emma Hunt and Jackie B for all your behind the scenes work.
In particular a huge thanks to John 'The Arrow' Farrow. It was a privilege to hear about your amazing journey to Sochi Winter Olympics. John's 3 key speaking points were overcoming adversity through mental attitude, the importance of making choices then committing to those goals, and success through self expression.John is available for a range of speaking engagements. Check out his details at www.johnfarrow.com.au, www.facebook.com/johnfarrow27, instagram@johnfarrow27.
For the distance runners I will see you at the Winter ANSW series. For the rest have a great off season, train hard and see you in October for another big season in 2015/16 at UTS Norths.
Cheers
Andy West
