Harrier Club

Although the best runners are going overseas this season (Peter Joyce and Giles Beaglehole to Europe and Dave Beauchamp to Fiji), we still have a solid core of very competent runners who will ensure a good showing in interclub competition.

Frank Walkey, who took us into the lead in the Masterton relay last year, is one of our best prospects. Peter Travers should perform well and is sure to run for us in the N.Z.U. race. Mike Honeyfield, who was second in the opening run, is very strong this year, while Roger Clarke, a good track performer, is expected to be a leading provincial junior this season.

Bob Creed, Vic three-mile champion and club captain, will provide experience, as will the other veterans, Gordon Dauber and Bob Croker. Of the new members, Peter Blakely and Jack Tregurtha are expected to attain A grade status.

The club also caters for the social runners who come out mainly for the afternoon teas. The Social and Slow packs look after their needs and a medium pack caters for the aspirants and those on the way to social running after their racing career is over.
