Bendigo University Invitation 2009


May 17, 2009

 

A fine day greeted runners at Saturday’s running of the Bendigo University Invitation. Large turnouts across all of the races ensured a great day of racing.

In the 7.5km race, Bendigo University’s young gun Andy Buchanan flew around the undulating course to win in a time of 25.50 and continue his strong form this winter season. Bendigo YMCA Harriers athlete Meredith Cook made it back-to-back wins in the open women’s section running a fast time of 29.37. Harriers pair Ross Evans (40+) and Charles Chambers (50+) won their respective age groups in times of 27.59 and 28.20. Anne Buckley ran well to win the womens 40+ category in a time of 31.32 and Eaglehawk’s Barb Cornell took out the 50+ category.

The 4km race saw some strong racing on a relatively flat course. BYM’s Jamie Cook won the U18 race in 15.48 and another young athlete, BU’s Maddy Evely winning the womens section in a fast time of 17.11. Brett Gilligan (15.56) and Kirrily Burnett (18.29) won the invitation section for the 4km course.

South Bendigo’s Zoe Dean and Teleah Hayes won the U14 and U12 age groups in the 2km respectively posting times 7.32 and 7.57 while Eaglehawk’s Tom Savage (7.38) who won the U14 race just crossed the line ahead of U12 winner, BU’s Bailey Evans 7.43.

Bendigo University’s Ellie Wilson won the U10 1km race, running a slick time of 4.17 and clubmate Harry Jackel also had a good day out on track, running a good time of 4.28 to win the U10 boys race.

Thanks to all who helped out during the day to make it a success.

Next weeks racing will be the Guy’s Hill Heartbreak across distances of 1km, 3.75km and 6.6km. If coming from Bendigo, travel out Strathfieldsaye Road, turn right into Guy’s Hill Road and continue along until Pioneer Road. Wayne Forbes’ course always proves one of the toughest on the calendar and will again be hotly contested.
