Club President Matthew Parton received news yesterday that he would have the opportunity to race against some of our Olympic heroes and up-and coming young talent in the Australia Cup to be held in Brisbane on February 7th. The competition is in a teams, state based format in which each athlete earns points for their state depending on their finishing position in each race.

The selection comes on the back of a stunning run at ACT Interclub last Tuesday (27/01) in which Matthew came from third place at the bell to win the race on the final straight. In doing so he also smashed his previous personal best by 4 seconds to register an 800m time of 1:56.2s. Our club coach, Ted McClain, was on hand at the event and was overheard saying "I've been doing this (coaching) for 30 years and that is, honestly, one of the best performances I've ever seen".

The club will be waiting anxiously for Matthew's result in Brisbane and we wish him all the best in what is his biggest test thus far.
