Centennial Cup Results
Tearle Trophy Results
Scottish Race Report
The Le Gaye is gone replaced last year by the Centennial Cup. The Le Gaye course is also history which means first time participants will be spared the brutally steep hill on Severn Street – a rite of passage for the newbies.
I have assumed that
the Le Gaye course was dumped due to safety concerns caused by an increase in vehicle
and foot traffic on the Parade especially the busy shopping centre section.
The new Centennial Cup course is an out and back 5k sealed
handicap race starting on the Island Bay Esplanade The turnaround is somewhere on the road between
Island bay and Lyell Bay. Ironically
there is similarity with the old Tanadees Couse which was an 8k course starting
in Lyall Bay (Maranui Surf Club) with a turnaround on the Island Bay Esplanade.
It was an open handicap race and hotly
contested.One thing that was quite noticeable on Saturday was how few children there are in Scottish. An odd thing given that other Wellington clubs seem to have dozens of them.
