Race Report:


Over 30 runners took part in the Burton Cup held at Taylor Dam on Saturday May 5. The walkers who participated started off scratch.

The original W.G. Burton Trophy, one of the club's oldest trophies dating back to 1933, is presented to the winner of the Senior Men's race.

Hunter Bendell, Sophia Bendell and Dale Smit claimed back-to-back Burton Cup titles in the Boys 7 and under, Girls 12 and under and Senior Men's grades respectively.

The final race at Taylor Dam for 2012 season is the Brooklyn Shield on 26th May. This is an annual interclub event between Nelson, Waimea and Marlborough. We are the current holders of the Brooklyn Shield and the Senior Men's and Women's teams silverware.

Meanwhile two other club members were in action on Sunday. Peter Dick and Mieke Holtrop competed in the 1/4 Marathon Run held in association with the Nelson Half Marathon.
