The regional EMR event is held on Saturday, 5th July at Lilydale Lake, Lilydale for ages U9-U17. Remember that to automatically enter in the State event, you need to compete and complete the regional EMR race on the 5/7.

-State Relay Championships
This year we had 2 teams compete at the Relay Championships, due to some unforeseen last minute illnesses and injuries where we had 3 teams drop out last minute.
The U12G team of Indy, Hannah and Clem ran an extremely impressive race and finished up 4th in the state! The team improved 6 spots from the previous year and should be really proud of how well they ran.
The U10B team of Josh, Monty and Eddie ran an awesome 14th out of a huge pack and the biggest race of the day. Josh was running in the age group above and still managed to finished in the top 4 runners.
Thanks to the athletes and families for heading out to the farm and for representing the club so well!

BHLAC Open Day
The following day we had the Box Hill Open Day at Wattle Park. Another good turn out of athletes from Collingwood saw PB’s crushed, medals aplenty and smiles all round. It was great to see all of our new winter members enjoying themselves and getting into it.
Some highlights of the morning were Josh and Annabel finishing their races with huge leads, Halle’s impromptu dance moves on the podium, and the enormous grin on Layla’s face as she finished the U6G race!

Also a reminder for parents to email any good images of our runners in action to crosscountry@clac10.org.au.

Hopefully see some more good turn outs this Sunday at CMLAC and also at the Regional event on 5/7!
