The Waikato-Bay of Plenty runner clocked an impressive time of 31min 43.27sec to win the event by over a minute. That included Waikato-Bay of Plenty silver medallist Sam Tanner (32min 53.00sec) and Otago bronze medallist Oli Chignell (33min 00.64sec). So hard, harder, hardest, then have a tempo to regroup and go as hard as I could at the end. Zara Geddes took silver in the under-16 girls, while Hannah Prosser took bronze in the under-18 girls. Michelle Watt, Georgina Pakeho, Claire Gillies, Phillip Morris, Glen Chisholm, Andrew Lonie and Geoff Anderson all took bronze.
