The weather was ideal with initial overcast conditions and a light breeze for the annual Buller Marathon on Saturday. Although no club members contested the 42.2km course we were well represented over the shorter distance. Robbie Barnes won the M5059 Age Group for the second successive year. Michelle Harris and Jodie Brown recorded personal best times. Judith Hyndman was third in the F5564 Recreational Walk.
