2015 Lunartic Awards
Every year Peter Milnes puts together the stories that exemplify the quirky situations that arise in our unique sport. Here are the Lunartic Awards for 2015.
2014 Lunartic Awards
The awards were conceived by a past president Peter Taylor in the early nineties and were initially presented by Peter and Dru Patkin. Peter continued the awards till 2001 and since then have been presented by Peter Milnes. The awards also provide an opportunity to recap on the years events and give further recognition to the setters.
If you have a suitable story please share it with fellow rogainers by sending it to Peter Milnes.
“MIDNIGHT SERENADE”
24hr State Champs June, Middleback Ranges
Setter: Geoff Mills
After leaving the hills, this team became bored trudging back across the plains in the dark. To relieve the boredom they started singing songs. One of their favourites was American Pie but they couldn’t remember all the words. Fortunate to be in mobile phone range they downloaded the song and were able to give a perfect midnight rendition of the 1970s hit to all within earshot.
The midnight serenade award – Zara Soden & Lauren Gillis
