North Island Cross Country Championships, Spa Thermal Park, Taupo, 4 July 2009

The ground was as usual firm under foot, jumps have been renewed (and lowered!), and the weather was great, with the forecast rain staying away until the evening. Scottish members medalled in the senior women (Melissa Moon, 2); senior men (Stefan Smith, 3); men 35-39 (Todd Stevens, 1). 

38 Scottish members competed. Good to see the fine gradations of the age groups: 10, 12, 14, 16, 19 and under, seniors open (largely 20-34), 35-39, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69. 

In the provisional tally, Wellington Centre topped that competition. In the club results (place and presence), Olympic Harriers knocked Pakuranga off its customary perch. Third and fourth were Hutt Valley and Scottish.
