Tonight’s competition matched the excitement of being back with some close finishes. Noah Jones just held out Dave Palmer in the 100m with Fred Barnett setting a new venue record for the distance. In the first heat of the 3000m won by Like Considine, Dave Elward broke Mike McAvoys long standing record. While the second heat saw a win to Rachael Thompson. Considine also took out the final event, the 1000m where Fred Barnett set her second record for the night.
