After a cool start to the day, the sun gleamed over the Avenue Market Gardens, and without a breath of wind, made for perfect conditions for distance racing at Rupert Vance Moon Reserve, Bacchus Marsh.  Athletes took advantage of the flat courses with 24 Personal Best results recorded for the meet.

First up this week were the Under 9 & 10 athletes, racing over 1.5 kms.  Athletes ran out 750m before turning and heading back along the gravel path to the finish line.  Coming off strong performances at the recent State Cross Country Relays and Schools Cross Country Region Championships, Zeke Horne (BM) produced his best run this season claiming the win in a PB time of 6:15mins. Iyla Robinson (BM), also having a remarkable season, with top results at the State Relays and Schools Championships ran a big PB to cross the line in 2nd place, 1st girl. Iyla continues to improve each week and will be looking to continue her progress after qualifying to represent her School at the School Sports Victoria State Championships in mid July. Angus Norman and Anni Clarke also recorded PB results over the 1.5kms.
