It is great to head out of town, and this Saturday travellers to Harrington Park were rewarded with beautiful running weather, fine and cool whilst central Sydney was sheltering under a deluge. John Russell's course made it difficult for anyone to get full points, but teasing enough for them to try. Joel Putman succeeded in visiting all controls but at the cost of 3 minutes overtime, while Dean Williamson cut his loses by missing some controls but hitting the 30 minute deadline to be rewarded with second place.
Corinne Fulford was the first of the women to come in. Paige Wark had a debut run in the Easy course, showing great promise by running hard and tackling the map reading well enough to come second to the Davey family.
Once finished runners had one more treat in store - assembly was set next to an Italian restaurant!
