Press Release:

In the women’s race Lisa-Jane Weightman slashed her personal best by over a minute and a half to win the women’s race. Weightman’s time of 70:42 moves her to sixth on the Australian all-time list.

Weightman was delighted with her performance and is now confident of recording a personal best at the world championships, where she will contest the marathon.

“I want to go under 2:30. How far under I don’t know,” said Weightman on her aspirations.

“I’m going to give it a crack this time. In Beijing I was told to go out pretty conservatively. This time I plan to go out as hard as I can maintain for the first half and see what happens in the second half.
