Story
Support the members of the "Potentially Dreaming" team in this gruelling all-day event for a great cause.
The Sri Chinmoy Multi-Sport Classic is an all-day adventure set in the Snowy Mountains. The race combines water and land-based sports over 12 legs, ranging in difficulty from mild to strenuous. The race is being staged for the 6th time on Sunday 7 March 2010.
The course is varied, with 3 mountain bike legs ranging from easy to highly technical; 3 running courses from flat to very not-flat; 3 swims of between 1.2 and 2.5 kms; and 3 paddles of 5.5 to 9.5 kms. To read more about the event go to: http://au.srichinmoyraces.org/events/jindabyne

The pain, aching muscles & exhausted bodies that we will feel over this day are minor in comparison to the lifelong struggle that children with autism and their families face every day. Autism is a lifelong developmental disorder, impairing social, communication and behavioural skills. It is an extremely isolating disorder, for both children with autism and their families.
So why not support us & this great cause - we both need it!

Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect)
Autism Spectrum Australia (Aspect) is Australia’s largest national service provider for people on the autism spectrum.
Autism is different for everyone. Providing the right support requires understanding individual strengths, interests and aspirations. There is no one-size-fits-all solution.

Our approach means each person is understood and valued for their unique abilities, supported through their challenges and given opportunities to achieve their goals and fulfil their potential.
How your support helps
We need people like you to help us pave the way to a better future.
Autism is a lifelong condition. An estimated 1 in every 70 people in Australia is on the autism spectrum. Along with their family members, this means autism is a part of daily life for over a million Australians. It is likely you know someone – a family member, friend or colleague.
By fundraising for us, you will help provide the best opportunities for people of all ages on the autism spectrum from tailored educational support to fulfilling work lives and improved social environments.
