Round 8 – 22/01/2022
Both 40+ teams picked up places this week, which was particularly pleasing when it was our Power Play.
Paul Mierisch was our top scoring athlete with 1156, with Laura McLennan on 1050, David Firth on 980 and Darryl Kilmartin on 925. Darryl had a massive PB in his pole vault this week, while other records were shared around.
Returning from injury last week, Wendy Smith was a bit too enthusiastic and broke in her 100 metres. However, they allowed her to run by invitation and she broke her record, doing the same in the 200 this week.
