Track Domination!!!!

Guernsey emerged victorious in every track event they competed in this evening (how often does that happen!!) . Granted there were only 3 track events and one of them was a heat but if the Guernsey Cheerleaders can be out with their clackers why can't we have a good crow about it.

Prior to the track events started young Shannen was up in the High Jump, difficult stage for someone training as a 400M runner but she was still within 6cm of her PB.

First up on the track was the Dale Garland enhanced 4 x 400M squad in their heats. Dale got the boys off to a great start with an approx 48.5 split, Matt Bailey extended the lead with a 51.5 approx split and then the baton was with young Ross Hanley, Ross has been bouncing around the hotel this week dying to get out there and all that pent up energy propelled him round the lap in 52.1. By the time Nathan got the baton they were well clear of the Cayman quartet. Comfortable victory with the option of bringing in Tom & Hywel for the final. Don't write off the Caymans yet though.

Marts and Lou were simply brilliant in the womens 5000. After ignoring an ambitious couple of opening laps the Marts led duet slipped through the field and hit the front with an impressive couple of 82 second laps in the middle of the race. Lou had the change of pace but ... tear in eye...."Guernsey was the winner". Gold and silver.

Mezza tracked local star Janne Holmen for much of the 5000M , ran a pretty impressive last 500M, and was simply awesome down the back straight Gold & new games record 14:21.
