A tough task lies in wait for members his week as the PCCCT heads to Burnie for the Payne Family ten kilometre handicap.
Starting at the Council depot at Three Mile Line, runners complete a circuit course taking in the many hills of Mooreville and West Mooreville Roads.
Although challenging, it is very popular and a large field is expected. With the season now more than half completed, there are many runners who have been close to winning, some on several occasions, but who haven’t breasted the tape and will be keen to do so soon. This will make for a close and exciting contest.
One runner who is perfectly suited here is last year’s winner, Hayden Bishop. He finished in “the ten” in a similar race at Devonport a few weeks ago and has performed well since. He could very easily make it back-to-back wins in this event.
Sven Mason has been getting closer almost weekly and would not surprise if he won. His wife, Karina, has also been close to winning all year and a Mason quinella is a possibility.
Matthew Rolls was flying home over a much shorter distance last week and will fancy his chances, but there are many other contenders, including, Amie Bramich, Don McCreadie and Lorraine Shepherd.
Entries close at 9:30 with the race starting at 10:00.
A nominated time event will be held at 9:05.
