S-K Attempt - Josh & Michael
Tararua Forest Park
Michael Beaumont & Josh Campbell made their attempt at a Sub-24 hour S-K crossing on Tuesday, starting at 2:27am from the Putara Road end.
Unfortunately they got behind schedule early on and had to bail at Maungahuka Hut on Tuesday evening, stayed there overnight and then made their way out via Otaki Forks the following morning.
A fantastic effort nonetheless by these guys!

Scottish Night of Miles
Basin Reserve, Wellington
Wellington Scottish's Night of Miles event was back at the Basin Reserve with a fine, warm, sunny afternoon. Santa made a guest appearance in the Kids Dash races and All-Comers Mile.
We had a couple of members that participated and some of the juniors gave Santa a good run for his money.
Callum Wos destroyed Santa in his grade's Kids Dash, having enough time to give the Trentham crowd the cheeky V's before finishing. Josh Jordan dominated the All Comer's Mile by taking the lead from the start, with Daniel Du Toit taking the Walker's Mile in a similar dominant style. Michael Du Toit featured in the fast-paced Elite Men's Mile, finishing 7th in a solid time of 4:34.
