KURT FEARNLEY HEADS BACK TO EUROPE

Wheelchair athlete Kurt Fearnley flies to Europe tomorrow for an important series of events, just a day after officially opening a track named in his honour.
2017 is proving to be a busy year for Fearnley, as the 36-year-old builds up to the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.
“It’s nice to actually spend a bit of time with the family, it’s been a lot of time on the road over the last few months, and hopefully get qualifiers for the World Championships in London at the end of the year and the Commonwealth Games in April next year.”
