TeamMONASH™ was well represented in the recent Melbourne Marathon and Around the Bay in a Day events.

Over 500 runners and walkers from TeamMONASH™ competed in the annual Melbourne Marathon event on 12 October.

It was third time around for Monash alumnus Kenny Cheng (BA Commerce, 2003) who completed the 21.1 kilometre event.

"I compete in these events with some of my friends; the team atmosphere is great," Mr Cheng said.

More than 400 TeamMONASH™ riders competed in Around the Bay in a Day on Sunday 19 October. Monash received two awards, one for entering the largest university team, and another for entering the largest team overall.

The next TeamMONASH™ event will be the Portsea Swim Classic, on Saturday 17 January, 2009.
