AV, VMA and VRWC Races [incl VMA 20km Championship]
Albert Park  -  Sunday, 29th June 2008

[Extract from the VRWC "Heel & Toe" Newsletter - with thanks]

Our older walkers contested a series of different 20 km events – the Victorian Open championships, the Victorian Masters championships and our own VRWC men's championship for the Alf Robinson Trophy. Tom Barnes (1:29:07) and Megan Szirom (1:38:10) led from the front in the windy conditions, recording excellent times. Other top performances included Ralph Bennett (M65 – 1:56:43) and Heather Carr (W55 – 1:55:50). We also welcomed Brendan Hyde from NSW who completed the M60 20 km walk.
