A windy day greeted the growing SKAAC contingent at Nunawading for Round 2 of AV Shield Competition.
Club records were again smashed with the following records broken:-
- Lauren McGarry in the 1kg Discus with 22.01m good enough to take out every age group from Under 13 to Open;
- Lauren McGarry in the 400g Javelin with 19.33 extending the Under 14 & 15 records at that weight;
- Aaron Little in the Mens 40+ 400m running 58.48
- 40+ Mens 4×100 (Andrew Thomas, Aaron Little, Peter McGarry, James Flinn) in 58.7s
Great also to see Gerard Kerr & Nick O’Halloran back racing after a frustrating couple of injury marred seasons getting a 400m in 54.11 and 1500m in 4:55.0 respectively.
Chris Milne posted a PB in the 1500m (4:35.11) and also a produced a solid 400m. (56.11)
The Mens 40+ team had a GREAT showing with only 6 gaps across the whole program. James Flinn set the discus circle alight with a 33.99m effort showing that even after nearly 30 years, class still shines through. The 40+ club record is in serious danger!
The Under 14 team of Joel & Jett-Paris were simply awesome in tough conditions. Joel’s highlights being (1500m 5:58.7; and two really important results for the team in the Discus & Javelin). Jett-Paris’ 400m (69.59) and 80m Hurdles 17.90 were two super strong runs.
“Team Lauren” in the Under 14 Women’s comp came second for the second week in a row. Lauren this week broke the all-ages 1kg discus records from Under 13 all the way to Open with 22.01m. Lauren also broke the Under 13 & 14 400g Javelin records achieving 19.33m.
Special mention to Nigel Self (100m 11.44m) who has kept the fires burning in Mens 1 for the second week in a row. Re-inforcements are on their way Nige!!
