2021 Sandalwood Sanctuary Half Marathon: The new off-road course for the Kununurra Half Marathon proved popular with participants. The event attracted locals and a keen group of Kalgoorlie Runners, who made the long trip to Kununurra for the run. Event highlights included the young Lapsley brothers beating home their parents duo team. It was fantastic to have two PCYC compete in the event for the first time also, with the PCYC team setting the 1 lap record (22:37) as part of their Quad team's efforts. In the solo men’s field, local Steve Sunderland took line honors in 1:37:59. In the women’s, it was Kalgoorlie runner Ayako Kusui finishing first in 1:55:55. There was very strong junior performances in the duo’s and quads. With the Pufke brothers taking line honors in the duo and the Jolly Joggers taking home the chocolates in the Quad. The off-road course showcased the link track to Lakeside and the start/finish was at the new BMX track, which was formally opened on the day. |
