Round 3 – 27/11/2021
It was not only the tyranny of distance, but a Milers event on the Thursday night which kept numbers down. The weather didn’t help either as some athletes were reluctant to run into a strong headwind when the result was always going to be unsatisfactory. Special mention to Anthony Jordan who ran a national qualifier for his para classification in the 200m despite the difficult conditions.
Round 4 will be held at Knox (100/400/1500 program) and Keilor (200/800/3000 program). Entries are filling up fast so make sure to enter prior to the cut off time of midday Wednesday if you want to compete.
It was the junior teams which shone this week, with the men’s and women’s under 14 teams both being near the top of the ladder and the men’s 40+ coming 6th.
At the Victorian Milers Club on Thursday night it was welcome back to Abbey Caldwell, who won the 800 and 3000 metre A grade races and achieved national qualifying times in both. National qualifiers were also run in the 3000m by Rachel White, Luca Scholes-Robertson, Luke Sinn and Alastair Christy.
Track Closure
This week is the final week the track will be open for training before it is closed on Monday 6th of December for resurfacing and upgrade works.
We are finalising alternative training arrangements which will be communicated to club coaches during the week.

AVSL Round 1 club record
Congratulations to Peter Holland who broke the Under 16 800m club record back in Round 1 of AVSL. His time of 1:54.70 (which was also a PB and national qualifying time) eclipsed the previous record of 1:55.74 set in 1985 by D. Gould.
Athletes to finish top 10 in the state across all age groups in Premier division were:
800m: Jochem Bowler (5th)
80m hurdles: Jamison Harding (2nd)
90m hurdles: Shakira Harding (5th)
100m hurdles: Alessia Wynne (2nd), Nash Chandler (3rd)
110m hurdles: Chris Butterworth (3rd)
Long Jump: Alessia Wynne (7th)
Those to top the lists in Zone A include:
M20: Long Jump Lachlan Parrott
M18: 200m Thomas Reynolds, 110 hurdles Chris Butterworth
M16: 100m hurdles Nash Chandler
M14: 2000m Walk Lewis McLennan, High Jump Alex Lloyd
W20: 100m hurdles & Long Jump Alessia Wynne
W18: 800m Sanne Bakker
W16: 90m hurdles Shakira Harding, High Jump Eliza Chivers
W14: 80m hurdles Jamison Harding
With a strong headwind, no one scored 500 points this week. Thomas Reynolds scored 490 for his 200, Jochem Bowler 486 for his 800 and Alessia Wynne 483 for her long jump.
Brodie Mierisch again was our top scoring athlete, with 1257 from his three events, just ahead of his father, Paul, who scored 1125 as they continue their rivalry. Eliza Chivers came in next on 1090 ahead of Darryl Kilmartin on 1031 and then Campbell McLennan on 1009. Graham Ford, Alessia Wynne and Kim Peak all scored in the 900s. Thanks to all those who helped as officials and team managers.
