Great day at the final Athletics Ballarat event for XCR 2026 with the running of the Athletics Ballarat Relays.
Our young team with 2 older heads were convincing winners of the Division 1 event with Josh Johnston and Jordan Mayston combining with young guns, Isaac Gillett, Archie Grant, Perrie Grant and Ollie Ryan for a comfortable win. Eureka's U14 Boys and Girls both took out their events whilst the Veteran women were impressive winning their section.
A big Thank You to all our helpers and the sun was a welcome relief after last week's weather conditions.

Last run at the Uni in 2016 before moving back to the Lake.
Here are some photos.

Wayne Robb put in another solid performance to take out fastest time on the tough course with a 24min 11sec run. Ava O'Halloran put in a strong run to win the 3.5km handicap from Belle Jantzen with Rory Colgrave storming home for third. Ebony Henderson led for much of the distance with O'Halloran storming by over the closing 400m.
