Congratulations to everyone who participated in the club’s first ever virtual race. With the 2021 XCR season cancelled, the club celebrated what would have been the traditional Round 9 Tan Relay with a virtual competition in its place.
43 athletes competed across 10 teams and 3 individual entries.
A big well done to Matt Sostaric, who finished the competition with the quickest individual time, a blistering 12:50 around the actual Tan track. Charlotte Wilson finished the day with the quickest individual female time, a speedy 13:38.
Of the relay teams, first place went to Athletics Essendon (Team 1), finishing in a time of 1:13:06. Well done to Red & Black Running (Team 5), who finished second in a time of 1:19:34 and Red & Black Running (Team 3), who finished third with 1:20:48.
Special thanks to the athletes who competed from Queensland, NSW, Western Australia and Greece.
