2018 VICTORIAN DASH FOR CASH
MODIFIED PROGRAM 3th Feb. 8.45AM - C.E BROWN RESERVE WENDOUREE - INCLUSION IN THE BALLARAT GIFT
The Ballarat Gift is one of the more prestigious events on the Victorian Athletic League calendar. Once again we have the chance to compete as in the 'pro's' , running from a handicap 'mark' which is calculated based on your personal best time for the season so far.
It is super exciting with close finishes no matter the ability, as in the perfectly handicapped race where everyone runs their PB, it would be a dead heat of 8 athletes ! Of course nothing is perfect in this world and that's what makes it exciting !!
All Ballarat Little Athletes have free entry and your handicaps have already been calculated.
(Updated 30/01 with all non BLAC athletes handicaps as well)
So come along, have some fun and .......don't forget to bring your best form; you could walk away with the chocolates !
Here is the timetable, and here are the finer details. (rules and regul
