TFTV ft. Laura Morath
Laura had a stellar 2023, setting impressive PBs, including 18:15 for 5K, 38:50 for 10K, and a 1:26 half marathon—winning the Wollongong Running Festival in the process.
She ran her first half marathon in 2016 but didn’t fully commit to running at the time. It wasn’t until recently, after having her two boys, Thomas and William, that she found the consistency to train seriously. Past guest and friend Renae Placek played a key role in encouraging Laura to take up running more competitively. Now, she’s a regular at Kembla Joggers' Thursday night track meets, balancing training with a busy work and parenting schedule.
Laura currently runs 3-4 times a week, hits the gym, and stays active at home while looking after the kids. This year, she’s focused on gradually chipping away at her PBs and making up for the half-marathon build she had to abandon due to injury late last year.
Training & Racing Updates
Sam logs his biggest week in months, covering 94km and sharpening up with some faster track sessions. Meanwhile, Laura is gaining momentum, rolling through her long run at 4:30/km pace. She also put in two impressive performances at KJ’s track night, clocking 5:36 for the mile and 12:30 for the two-mile race.
