@geoffcasewindows Windows by Geoff Case 12 200 metre Handicap
It was an ideal morning for the running of the Windows by Geoff Case King Of the Mountains 12.2 km handicap at the You Yangs on Sunday. A smallish field of forty took on the arduous task of scaling the legendary saddle climb in the second half of the race. It was second season runner, Kerrilee Haines, who held off the backmarker Michael Minney by 35 metres with Ralph Wright a further 45 metres behind in third. Haines has been attending Masters Athletics at Landy Field on Wednesday nights with significant improvement shown. The generous fastest time bonuses provided by the sponsor were won by Jaime Bell and Luke Haines. Fifteen other runners contested the consolation 5 km which was taken out by Coral Bridgland.
