This Sunday the PCCCT heads to Ulverstone for the Aviva Parfumerie five-kilometre handicap and many members will relish the short, flat event following tough courses the last few weeks.

Tobruk Park at West Ulverstone is the meeting place and the event will take competitors on paths west towards the Apex Holiday Park and return.

After completing his first marathon in May, former cyclist-turned-runner, Jordan Matthews has finished third and then a great second last week and this race must be his for the taking. The only thing in his way may be that it will be too short for him as he clearly likes the harder events.

There are many others waiting to pounce including Steve Tammens, Andrew Lucas, Kelly Baxter and Darlene Jacques while Stephen Dutton must also be considered.

The race incorporates the Club’s five-kilometre championships, so will be conducted as a mass start with the handicaps being sealed until after the finish.

The SC Concrete Pumping Women’s Championship is quite open. Lyn Saint-John and Felicity Lovatt look to be the main chances but Sabrina Shields, Bec O’Garey and Susan Moodie can’t be ruled out of contention.

Andrew Winkel, Joshua Febey and Hayden Bishop look the strongest chances in the Cahill Family Men’s Championship although Tom Murton and Tom Winkel will become the ones to beat if they compete.

Entries close at 6:00pm on Friday with the gun firing at 9:30.

A nominated time event will be held at 9:00.

Entries must be made at www.pccct.org which also has all relevant information. New runners are always welcome.
