A very solid Opening Day of pretty much non-stop action from our athletes at the QRSS Secondary Sport Championships at QE2.

Conditions were far from ideal proving very tricky in terms of a cold blustery wind that could swap from 3m headwind to 3m tailwind in the blink of an eye.

Axle Pratten was 13th in the 16 Years 3000m in 9:33.49, Ethan Bird 10th in 9:40.00 in the same race while Emilia Schulze was 5th in 10:27.47 in the 15 Years in 10:27.47. William Law was 7th in the 15 Years in 9:21.16.

Making it through to Finals in the 800m were:

Dylan Reid (14 Years 2:07.58)
Axle Pratten (16 Years 2:03.63)

Final Day of the QRSS Primary School States at QE2 today and Louis Johnson got into the Medals with a Silver in the Boys 12 Years Tetrathon with 1319 points after a 2:24.08 2nd place in the final event the 800m.

In the 800m Finals we had the following competing:

10 years Girls
6th Lilli Chu 2:47.69

10 Years Boys
6th Ethan Langham 2:27.66

12 Years Boys
8th Elliott Stannard 2:19.81

For some athletes out of this meet the National Primary School Championships in Melbourne from 29th November to 3rd December will now beckon.

For many others across the Regions the excellent base levels of technical skills across the functional movement fundamentals of running, jumping and throwing will stand them in good stead.

That will be the case no matter whether they eventually decide on athletics as the long term target or choose to take another path in whatever level and variation of sport they move forward with.

We have a very busy next seven days of action at QE2 with the QRSS Primary and Secondary School Championships at QE2.

As a result there won’t be a Saturday Circuit session at UQ next Saturday.

Some athletes are on the quick back up from intense competitions so try to be well hydrated with plenty of sleep and eating well in the days leading in and slip/slip/slap on the day.

Best of luck to everyone involved.

The weather was warming up and the jacarandas were in full bloom indicating exams aren’t far away at the Des Connor parkrun this morning.

For this time of year attendance was massive with 280 competitors.

And it turned out to be a great morning for the O’Brien family as George and Ellery both showed the field a clean pair of heels getting home in 7:12 and 8:20 respectively to be the first boy and girl over the line.
