The rain stayed away long enough for the Scott Smith Orthodontics Longford 8km Hcp to be run in dry conditions with only the moderate headwind to contend with in the last 4km.
Club secretary Katie Proctor ran a pace consistent and strong race to edge out Jozina Goedhart into second and Strawb Anderson for third. Katie has been getting stronger and showing improvement recently after many months on the injury list at the beginning of the year. As for Jozina, she has been consistent by collecting second place two weeks in a row. Fastest male was Brodie Triffett in a time of 30:29 and fastest female was Paige Wierenga in 36:30. It was great to see our race sponsor Scott Smith pull the runners on for the first time this year and undertake presentation duties after the race. No doubt he’ll be better for the run!
In the junior Divisions, Ryan Holloway and Anabelle Pyke collected the trophies for first place in division 2 and 3 respectively. Fastest male and female in div 2 were Ryan again in 4:14 per km and Lani Tai in 5:30 per km, while in div 3 fastest were Luke McHugh in a blistering 3:41 per km and Averyl Quinn also in a very speedy 4:05 per km.
