RMIT University Snow Sports - RUSS

SUMMER SENDOFF WENT OFFFFF
A wedding, parties and an olympics what more could you ask for from the last summer trip of the year???
GET KEEN FOR THE WINTER SEASON RUSS!! 😏

Legs burning, catcher car chasing and literal litres of Redbull being consumed… last Sunday RUSS took part in the Wings For Life World Run !!

A total of 594.53 km were run and a whopping $1483.98 was raised - with every cent going towards research to find a cure for spinal cord injuries

A MASSIVE team of 40 runners also meant that RUSS was rewarded the $1,000 bar tab for having the most sign-ups of any university snow sports club in Melbourne!!

Major thanks and congratulations are in order for everyone that came out and raced against the catcher car!! Such an amazing effort from everyone that got involved 🙌🙌
