Past Issues

Here’s what’s happening in Sydney.

Spring is officially in sight and we can’t wait to get back to those picnic and outdoor training vibes. For the last full week of winter, we’ll keep bringing the heat with the best health and fitness happenings in the city!

🏔 Social Climbers

Saturday, 24 August marks North Face's Global Climbing Day. Aimed at creating an inclusive climbing environment and addressing some of those pesky obstacles that stop us from ever getting on the wall, North Face runs a series of open-entry climbs in rock gyms the world over. And Sydney is definitely not neglected, organising events from 9 degrees in Paramatta and Climb Fit St Leonards, all the way to Sydney Indoor Climbing in Lane Cove and further afield in NSW at places like Hangdog Climbing Gym in Wollongong. It’s free to attend, and there are some epic North Face goodies up for grabs for participants. Visit the website for a full list of gyms and to secure your spot!

☀️ Rise & Shine at Vine & Grind

Legendary Liverpool culinary institution Vine & Grind has just dropped a health-minded and hearty menu... and it is EPIC. With tasty options like Yuzu Eggs Benny (vegetarian) and sweet potato fritters (GF), there’s plenty to love about the fresh spread. It’s open for breakfast and lunch every day in the heart of Liverpool’s Westfield — so why aren’t you there already!?

✨ A Day of Bliss

Tickets for the world’s first “mindful triathlon”, Wanderlust 108, are officially on sale for Sydney’s 26 October event, and we KNOW they won’t be around for long! With a 5km run, 75-minute yoga session, and a 25-minute guided meditation, there’s plenty of movement to get your blood pumping. And if you need to refuel and refresh afterwards? There are the spectacular Kula Market and True North Cafe, which features tasty local foods including vegan and veggie options. No better way to nourish your body, mind, AND soul in sunny Centennial Parklands — sign up today!

The Bloody Long Walk
Entries are closing soon for The Bloody Long Walk, a very appropriately named event that’s happening this September. The 35km walk through Sydney North will start at Palm Beach and travel the coasts all the way to Manly Corso. It’s fully supported, meaning there will be refreshments and checkpoints along the way!

G&T for You And Me
Centennial Parklands has just announced Australia’s BIGGEST gin & tonic festival, landing in our lovely city this spring. There’ll be picnic hampers, food trucks, live music, and, of course, hundreds of delicious G&Ts. Booking is live; don’t miss it!

Dog Day!
It’s Pound Paws Dog Day at The Golden Sheaf this Saturday! Hosted in The Sheaf's dog-friendly beer garden, Pound Paws will bring together food, fun, and furry friends to raise awareness for overcrowding in Australian shelters (and, hopefully, to increase the adoption rate across the whole state!). Come down from midday and show the puppies some love — who knows, you might even leave with a new best friend!

ShoutOuts

 
Shoutout to @bunkergymaus’s @joey_angus, who was handing out punishments for members that no-showed classes after booking. Extra burpees, air bike sprints, and treadmill runs all around!
