1 2 and 3 feature race

ninth Island

The 2017 Ninth Island 10k Feature race was won today by club course setter, Scott Jones! The race was a photo finish with just the computer deciding that Scott crossed the line by the smallest of margins from Ricky Markham. Last weeks winner Jozina Goedhart ran a great race into 3rd place. Todays sponsor provided all runners with a bottle of Ninth Island wine – everyone was a winner today! The fastest male today was Matthew Zegveld in a time of 37.32 and the fastest female was Paige Wierenga in a time of 45.10.

Today was also the feature race for the juniors – we had the races, facepainting and presentations, lots of fun!

In the division two 2.5k race Charlotte Rogers won from Benjamin Frost and Harry Darsaklis. The fastest male in todays race was Benjamin Frost and the fastest female was Mackenzie Roberts.
