Yarra Ranges Athletics competed at the Knox Little Athletics Club cross country open day on Saturday, an opportunity for the athletes to compete against 15 other athletic clubs at the picturesque Nortons Park.
Up for grabs was the Perpetual Open Day trophy for the champion club.
With courses ranging from 500m to 3kms, and in warm conditions, the club held off some strong competition from Sherbrooke to retain the trophy for the fourth consecutive year.
Congratulations to all the athletes, young and not so young, who competed.
Results will be posted to the club website as soon as they are available.
Next Saturday the club is at Margaret Lewis Reserve, Coldstream from 8.30am.
The seniors will be competing in Round 3 of the XCR17 season at Cruden Farm.
Another fun filled, busy weekend.
The club welcomes all athletes of any age or ability.

Run, jump, throw … too easy!
