Brother And Sister Tag Team Take The Win!

Today was the last junior race of the season, where the regular style of handicap racing was ditched in favour of a relay.

Each junior paired up to form a team all except Isabella Ellis who was tough enough to go it alone.

Brother and sister, Alexander and Harper-Lee Basten teamed up and easily beat the competition with a great team time of 14:00

Finishing behind the Basten’s was the other sibling combo of Georgia and Freya White running a team time of 15:42.

Ermel started off in the middle of the field consisting of 22 runners and knew he had little time to catch the 14 runners ahead of him over the short 3.2km distance.
