Tales from the Valley Podcast - Dylan Gall on NLRC

Tales from the Valley Podcast

Dylan Gall joins Sam for a chat on the podcast. Dylan is the co-founder of the Never Lazy Run Club, and a talented runner himself (17:02 5k and 35:55 10k). Growing up in Narooma Dylan always did a bit of running while he did boxing, though when he moved to the Gong he took up running a little more seriously. Initially, Dylan and Jarrod had started the ‘Active Bois Run Club’ which was a hand full of mates who met at the kiosk. The likes of Timmy Waters and Nath Hennessy were rolling around, and before they knew it they had upwards of 50 runners meeting on a Sunday morning at North Gong.

Dylan and Sam talk about a few of the earlier ABRC events including a huge showing at the Run Shellharbour Festival, supporting the 42forCF cause and groups heading away to major marathons like Melbourne Marathon together. This led to events like a 3k handicap race around the Blue Mile, Christmas Party’s and scheduled run times at designated cafes around the Gong.

The recent name change from ABRC to Never Lazy Run Club (NLRC), firstly was an interesting story and secondly was changed to ensure that the club was viewed as truly inclusive and everyone could feel comfortable in joining.

Dylan is also a Personal Trainer and had started ‘Make it Count Performance’ (MICP). Dylan and Sam have a chat about the importance of strength training and Dylan’s success working with local runners.
