There were competitive finishes in there, with Year 12 student, Hadlee Fowler taking out pole position with a time of 6m 25s, coming in just in front of staff participant, Mr. Billing.
This time was followed closely by Year 9 student, Noah Lomas, clocking in at 6m 26s who set the bar earlier in the day! 

HUGE thanks to New World Westend for fuelling our runners with delicious 🍎 apples after our run! 😋
