This week the PCCCT heads to Burnie for the Fish Frenzy five kilometre handicap and many members will relish the short event following the twenty-five kilometres of last week.
The course starts at West Beach and is an out and back course to Cooee, utilising the board walks and footpaths.
The race incorporates the five kilometre club championships, based on fastest times. The women’s competition should see a close contest between Lyn Saint-John and Natasha Mapley. Brad Taylor will be hardest to beat amongst the men, although he will have a battle on his hands if Thomas Wilson starts and Bryan Tuit can’t be discounted
The handicap event will be keenly contested. It will provide another chance for front and middle markers to garner a win before a series of longer tougher events.
Amie Bramich has run some terrific races lately as the extra training she has been doing has kicked in. She followed a seventh in the City of Devonport ten kilometre event with second at Stanley and then a great fifth last week. She should start favourite here.
Her dangers though are many, and include Ken Troughton, Neville Sweetman, Lorraine Shepherd and Sven Mason.
Entries close at 9:30 with the gun firing at 10:00. Members are reminded to wear their numbers and timing chips. New runners are always welcome and this would be a good race to commence running with the PCCCT.
A nominated time event will be held at 9:05.
