Cooee runner, Jason Fehlberg, has won the Anvers Confectionery twelve kilometre handicap at Railton on Sunday.
Fehlberg was not one of the top fancies for the event and admitted he was surprised with his win. However, he has been running consistently and had looked promising a little earlier in the season.
Running over his favourite distance of ten kilometres, Fehlberg also got his preferred terrain and weather, the wind staying away.
These factors combined to see him take the lead from front marker, Eric Hughes, with about five hundred metres to run and then hold off a late challenge from Kyle Groenewege.
Groenewege’s second followed on from a third last week and for him a win can’t be far away. Greg Smith, who won the club marathon earlier in the season, finished third showing he has maintained his form.
Other runners to turn in strong efforts included Owen Thomas, Bryan Tuit and Grant McCormack.
Fastest female was Lyn Saint-John with Brad Taylor the fastest male.
Nominated time winners were Brooke Riley, Nat Luttrell, and Dominic and Mackenzie Troughton.
