NSW MIDDLE DISTANCE CHAMPS

The NSW Middle Distance Champs were held at were held in the hills surrounding Mt Piper Power Station Lithgow.

Courses made the most of the spur gully terrain and whilst some may suggest that they were on the easy side there were many who made small mistakes because of the open terrain.

After the event the crowds scattered to all points around Lithgow to prepare themselves for the NSW Champs the next day. There is a remarkable difference in the way people prepare. Some close themselves off in a room and impersonate a swedish sauna, others consume red wine or white wine, beer and cheese. Some are known to consume some bubbly to wash down a fine fruit salad.
