LITTLE Athletics continues to go from strength-to-strength in Casterton and while some weeks the participation numbers are smaller due to outside factors, our results speak for themselves.
Just two weeks into the second half of the season, more than half of our members who took to the track and field on Friday night posted season personal bests in events.
Some of those PBs left our timekeepers at the end of the running track shocked – in the best possible way! – with three, four and even five seconds shaved off event times.
Many of the track results were just a matter of 100ths of a second from participants’ best results for the season, so as we get back into the swing of things after the break, we’re super excited to see everyone’s progress over the coming weeks.
A special mention to Sapphira Constantine in our Under 8 Girls group, who participates every week with an equally smiley and determined face and this week recorded personal bests in ALL of her events, which included both flat and hurdles races, throwing and jumping events – well done, Sapphira!
And to Dakota-Jane Wilson who, despite taking a tumble in the hurdles, jumped up to complete her event.
Well done, Dakota-Jane!
As always, it’s great to see the amazingly good sportsmanship among our members, with high-fives and pats on the back for PBs – no matter the result of an event – and encouragement from both spectators and participants for everyone.
Thanks again to the rellies and friends who come along every week and help out with marshalling age groups, running an event or cooking the barbecue.
We could not do it without you!
