“We had about 50 runners, the two kilometer was very popular but the rest of them were split between the five and ten, there were loads of local runners which was really nice. It was also well supported by the group in Quirindi.”

“This is the ninth year that we have run it and this is the second year out at the race track and it’s just brilliant, the race track have been fantastic and because we’re now doing before the Scone cup they said we can go wherever, they mowed it all for us and it’s just a great venue.”

“The council are also supportive of it, they gave us a lot of the lucky prizes so we had prizes to give away to the participants, Anytime Fitness gave us some prizes as well,” Nicky Western said.
