This is the second year in which the Scottish Night of Miles has been held at the Basin Reserve but I wonder if it should go back to Newtown Park next year.
Last year the Basin was the venue because the new track at Newtown was still under construction.
The meeting at the Basin alternative venue was
successful because it was novel and generated a good atmosphere.
This year that
atmosphere seemed to be missing a bit although there was no obvious reason why this
should be.
From an organisational and logistical perspective Newtown
Park is the much better place. It is purpose built for running and with
all the facilities and equipment.
If this year’s organisers sit down to assess what worked and
what didn’t maybe they should consider returning the event to Newtown Park or as
a compromise to use the Basin in alternate years.

ReplyDeleteWell enunciated Rowan about it not being quite the same this year. There was something missing - maybe it was a "star" athlete - maybe it was "atmosphere" but definitely time to go back to Newtown Park. The race of the night was the women's mile between Hannah Oldroyd and Deb Lynch - a fantastic battle of wills and only a hair's breadth separated them at the finish after Hannah successfully saw off several gutsy challenges by the triathlete. Great that over $1000 was raised for Bellyful too.
