Other new national relay records
It grieves me to report that the Australian W50 4x1500m record is now held by Queensland in 23.24.5, we had the old record of 24.27. And the M50 4x800m record has also been taken by a Queensland team in 9:14.4, Victoria had the record in 9.59. We should be able to reclaim both of them soon!

so hot running today. this would be more fun!
