Newcastle added some novelty to the halfway point of the bush season with four quality sprint events at the weekend.
Two races each on Saturday and Sunday in a mixture of urban, campus, parkland and benign bush with no street crossings made for a nice break from the forest.
Around 80 competitors on Saturday were on hand at Cardiff High School and Hunter Sports High, while Sunday saw 55 people at Avondale College in Cooranbong (Sydneysiders were by then back home at the MetrO League).
You counted your best three runs, and the winners in the long class were Jenny Enderby and Alvin Craig, and in the short class were Erika Enderby and Andrew Power.
A big thank you to the Rigbys for co-ordinating this terrific weekend. You can see Tony Hill's great photos here.
