Report on the 2005  Champs at Nelson from Julie Carson 

Run on Rabbit Island on 6th August - on a really warm day the Kapiti Harriers had 12 members competing.  There were U14 & U12 non championship races, and Katie & Ben James, Alice & Kate Forster, Erin & Keegan McCauley and Mathew Pavitt all ran.  A fabulous turnout from our younger members.
 
Paul Forster, Hamish Carson, Alan McCauley, Suzi Richards and Maurice Piper were all selected to represent the Wellington Region at the Championships.  Hamish was 7th in the Under 20 Men and he and his Wgtn region team mates took first place medals in the team placings.
 
Paul  was 4th in the Masters Men 45 - 49
Alan  was 9th in the Masters Men 45 - 49
Maurice  was 9th in the Masters Men 55 -60
Suzi was injured and dnf.
The Wgtn Region Senior Mens team also picked up a gold.
 
A great trip, made even better by the wonderful support all our members gave each other during their races
