A tough task lies in wait for members his week as the PCCCT heads to Burnie for the Paine Family Memorial ten-kilometre handicap.

Members will meet at the McKenna Park Hockey Complex ready for a start on Three Mile Line and will complete a circuit taking in the many hills of Mooreville and West Mooreville Roads.

Although it is a challenging course, it is very popular with runners wishing to test themselves over the classic distance and most will be very fit heading into the second half of the season.

Following a string of top runs while showing continued progress, Andrew Lucas will be a top chance on a course that will suit him. After breaking into “the ten” at Stanley, he has continued to improve finishing a great fourth over a similar course at Somerset before a sixth last week in a less suitable event.

Adrian Mann was sixth in the tough twelve-kilometre race two weeks ago and will be very hard to beat while Rhian Miles is well overdue for a win

Others with strong chances are Aaron Robertson, Steve Tammens, and Jason Scott while David Murton and Gerard Lowry can’t be discounted.

Entries close on Friday at 6pm with the race starting at 9:30.

This week also sees the running of the nominated time “Feature Race” to be held at 9:00 with extra prizes provided by the Paine Family. The Club is looking for strong support from members to make this a great event
