Hot one for the Harriers

Australia finished second in the Backyard Ultra World Team Championship at Kembla Grange, south of Sydney, with 1069 yards. The United States won with 1120 yards, and Belgium took bronze. Dan Camac was the last Australian standing, completing 87 laps. Traralgon Harriers then tackled a hot run and walk course in the bushland north of Toongabbie, where Sav Mavrofridis and Karen Graham were the quickest finishers. The club's next event is a Halloween dress-up run at the Railway Reservoir Reserve in Traralgon.

Independent to make political debut in Labor heartland

Social enterprise leader Kylie Flament is standing as an independent for the NSW state seat of Keira, held by Labor since 2011. The seat is currently held by NSW Health Minister Ryan Park. Flament, who has never held political office, says voters want alternatives to party politics. Her campaign launch drew about 100 people at Corrimal Community Centre on October 17. Her main priorities include hospital wait times and housing. She says her campaign starts with far less funding than the major parties, which receive public money based on past vote tallies.
