"It was a nerve racking race," said Pip after the annual Road Relay Race through Brooklands Park last Monday. Four Oakura teams competed among 43 teams from throughout New Plymouth District. Girls Year 8 placed second in their division and the Year 8 boys placed 5th. The Year 7 Girls placed 13th and 10th for the Year 7 boys.
"Running through the forest was nice at the start of the race," said Hayden "The downhills were fun, but the uphills were tiring, especially the one at the end of the coarse," he continued. The race coarse was 6 kilometres alltogether with each runner running 1.5 kilometres. Kate said that "It was a really fast-paced run."
Oakura Year 7&8's did really well and had lots of fun doing the relay. We did the best we have ever done in all our years of competing. A great race to everyone who competed.
