Canterbury Cross Country

Danny Hillary —

This year the Canterbury Cross Country was held at Nga Puna Wai.

The venue change meant the course was new for all of the athletes, we usually run at Halswell Quarry. 

Nga Puna Wai provided the children with a challenging 2-3 km course with a mixture of surfaces like grass, gravel, tracks and small inclines.

Our runners, all put in their best effort and achieved some great results. The students were running in fields of up to 200 other children.
