In the Middle (12km), it was a Big Foot trifecta among the women with Jo Parr beating her daughter Rebecca George and Nicole Mealing. in the men's section, Garingal junior Duncan Currie streeted the field by 21 minutes, leaving Tim Giles and Ruairidh MacDonald (BF) to battle for the minor placings.
There were clar ten-minute victories in the Short (8km), with ONSW director Michael Ridley-Smith and GO clubmate and visiting Finnish teenager Iida Lehtonen (pictured) winning easily.
