Update: Palmer park race night | 3k | 8th May - *** POSTPONED (Reschedule date, TBC) ***

Regretfully, we've had to postpone tomorrow's 3000m track event.

This is due to the unavailability of race officials due to illness, whom we were unable to replace at short notice.

Without the requisite qualified officials, our race licence is invalidated and likewise our event insurance.

We're currently investigating rescheduling options and will update promptly.

We're sorry for the inconvenience caused to all race participants and to our volunteers.

Thanks to all for your understanding and we look forward to seeing you back again, soon!
