ALTITUDE | A column by Jaryd Clifford – Runner’s Tribe
“It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.”
Sir Edmund Hillary
In the mountains, even the strongest stumble. Every step is gruelling, every breath a battle. It is an environment that demands courage. It is a place where only the toughest survive. It...

How Was the Uni Games Experience?
The experience of coming to the world universiade has been an incredible experience, although my result was a little disappointing missing out on the final by .2. The opening ceremony was something that I would expect to see at the Olympics with around 50,000...

We caught up with Izzi as her college days draw to an end to discuss her life as a Huskie and what the future has in store...

Love him or just dig him; as Peter Bol, Joseph Deng, and Ryan Gregson will confirm – he is one tough nut to crack, when in shape. We caught up with the 2018 Commonwealth Games 800m bronze medalist, and reigning Australian 1500m champ, Luke Mathews.
RT: Luke, good to have you back on RT. In this strangest of years, your absence in Europe was noted and we are all missing your prolific, motivating Strava logs. Assuming ongoing issues with Plantar Fasciits is to blame? What’s the latest?
LM: Hey guys! Thanks for having me. Certainly been a tough year to start the least.
