W50 Australian record 4 x 1500m

Posted by speedygeoff On Friday, February 18, 2011 | 3 comments

Congratulations to Kathy Sims, Maria O'Reilly, Helen Larmour and Kathy Southgate on their 4 x 1500m W50 Australian record. The record was formerly held by a Queensland team, and they broke it by 11 or 12 seconds. Go the geese!

Preparation: The four runners in the record breaking relay team got together some weeks ago and decided they would prepare specifically for this event. And it paid off. It's no secret folks: if you want to do well in a particular event, then plan and prepare for it.

Great record! Helen said they had to average 5:50, so obviously under that. Well done geese.
