One of the most enthralling storylines of the sporting
summer will open its next chapter on Saturday when Tom Walsh
and Jacko Gill resume their rivalry in the shot-put circle
at the Porritt Classic in Hamilton.
Gill, 26, is
currently riding the crest of a wave with three straight
victories over Walsh and a career-best throw of 21.52m at
the International Track Meet in Christchurch last
weekend.
But he will be wary of the constant threat of
three-time world champion Walsh, who has improved in
distance in each of his outings this season.
The
28-year-old started with 20.14m at the Night of 5s meet in
There has now been 69 sub-four-minute miles completed on the track. Benjamin Wall did not go with the early pace, but led the chasing bunch home, finishing very strongly for fifth place in 4m 3.95s. This was a personal best and a good indication he could be the first Palmerston North athlete. Noah Macdermid also achieved a big personal best, coming home 11th in 4m 10.22s. The meeting got off to a good start for Palmerston North, with Chayille Collette running a personal best of 12.39s in winning the women’s 100 metres. Later in the evening she ran another personal best of 25.39s, finishing second in the 200m.
