Scottish Race Report
The McVilly Shield has been morphed into a fun relay event
contested by teams of 4. The teams are mixed to ensure that they are not
stacked with speedsters and that makes the event much more interesting. The distance of
each lap also varies between 1k and 4k which gives teams an opportunity to
figure out a race order strategy.
The results show team times only, as individual lap
times were not recorded.
The event is also good relay running practice for new runners
ahead of the prestigious Shaw Baton relays at Battle Hill Reserve this coming Saturday It
can help refine pace judgement over short distances and also reinforces the need for team members to be ready on the start line to take the baton when it is their turn to run. Relay running is full of stories about team
members who weren’t on the start line to run their lap when they should have
been.
A poor attempt at blurring. It needed a tripod because those standing still should be blurred |
