Cycling Success


With her most successful results to date Yr11 student Holly Edmondston was our 'Golden Girl" at the NZ Track Cycling Nationals held in Invercargill last week, bringing home a haul of 3 gold medals and a silver.

The U17 Girls Points race proved a cracker with Holly winning the final sprint and jumping into the top spot. She claimed a deserved victory in the U17 Girls Individual pursuit finishing just 3/10th of a second off the fastest time recorded for the age group over 2000m and then teamed with Olivia Podmore to win another gold in the U17 Girls Team Sprint. Holly finished the meet with a silver in the U17 Girls 500m Time Trial, missing gold by just 1/100th of a second. Holly will return later in the year to attempt to lower the NZ record for the individual pursuit. Congratulations!
