This June Trials Meeting was shared (by arrangement) with the local Council who were trying to select their team for the "Runga" (National Inter-Island Championships). Overnight rain left some track flooding, but by selecting lanes we managed to give the athletes mostly a reasonable surface for their efforts !
Having completed the track events (we were given less than three hours for our programme), there was a spectacular electric storm and torrential rain as we tried to start the field events (Long Jump and Discus). After 45 minutes of that, we decided to stop !!
However, the athletes gave the spectators something to applaud with some excellent racing and several PBs, even in those conditions.
Thanks to Committee men Riani, Karakoa and Tekooki, plus Margaret and other helpers.
