Wednesday December 13 2023 Selwyn Times Lincoln athlete claims national junior record SPORT/RACING 21 ON THE MARK: Mark Purdon driving his star trotter Oscar Bonavena to victory.

PHOTO: SELWYN ATHLETICS • By Sam Coughlan A LINCOLN High School student has shattered a national record at the New Zealand secondary schools track and field championships in Christchurch. Year 9 student Alysa Brown stormed to victory in the junior girls 2000m race walk, winning with a time of 10mins 13secs – well clear of the previous New Zealand record of 11mins 27secs. Lincoln High Sports coordinator Karen Urbahn said it’s very exciting for Alysa and the school. “She’s been training for it, and it’s amazing to have a young wāhine win such a special record,” Urbahn said. She believes it’s all down to the effort put in by Brown, who also competes and trains with Selwyn Athletics Club. “She’s been training six days a week I think, and she does different activities than walking, like crossfit.” Alysa beat former record holder Yandri Fourie, who set the mark at the same competition last year. Yandri beat her previous record as well, but it wasn’t enough to stop Alysa from taking gold. Urbahn says Alysa is aiming for a repeat next year. “I’ve already spoken to her and she’s definitely going for nationals again next year. It’s very exciting.” Alysa’s medal was the only one won by Lincoln High at the championships, with its next best result being Eleanor Bisley, claiming 10th place in the junior girls 2000m steeplechase. Purdon pulls the ‘right’ rein • By Jonny Turner PULLING THE left rein proved to be a case of pulling the right rein for Mark Purdon in the Group One New Zealand Trotting Free-For-All at Addington on Grand Prix Day. Purdon left punters gasping with a lap to go in New Zealand’s biggest trotting sprint when he elected to stay three back on the markers with the red-hot favourite Oscar Bonavena. But those same punters were left counting their cash when Purdon shot his star trotter along the inner to claim his second big Group One title in three weeks. Though he looked as cool and calm as ever when doing so, Purdon admitted he thought he might have made a right hash of things when electing to stay on the markers. “I was thinking about what to do, and as soon as I decided to stay on the markers, Love N The Port came around,” Purdon said. “So, then I thought I had made the wrong move. But I thought if I sat parked, he would end up doing too much work. “His best attribute is his speed, and I drove him that way.” Winning came after a more few nervous moments for Purdon as he angled Oscar Bonavena into the passing lane. The trainer-driver admitted there were only millimetres between victory and an unlucky placing. “To be honest, there would only have been millimetres in it; I was doing everything I could to get a run. “Luckily there was enough room to just get through, and once he balanced up, he sprinted up really nicely.” – Harness Racing Desk LAST WEEKS BEFORE Christmas cOME AnD gET yOuR BBQ MEAT We close Saturday 23rd Dec at 3pm & reopen Monday 8th Jan 2024 Thank you to everyone who has supported us, from Brad and the team at Halswell Butchery.
