Victorian Country Championships, Bendigo


Our club had a large contingent head up the highway to compete over the weekend.
Two club records were broken; Archie Noakes broke the club’s 40 year old U20 3000m
steeplechase record, winning in a time of 8:57.97. He had to do it on his own as he won the race by

record with a leap of 3.00m.
