This is the 13th edition of the Capital Classic and after such fabulous success by athletics at the Rio Olympics last year, we are all very excited moving into the business part of the domestic season. It is great to see some of our Olympians and Paralympians here tonight and we feel very privileged that they have made the trip to Wellington. We would, in fact, like to thank all athletes, coaches and officials who have made the journey to The Capital this year in what looks likely to be a hugely competitive meet. As well as the main Classic program we also welcome back the Athletics NZ 3000m Championships that has bought our very best men and women runners for this event. We thank Athletics NZ for giving us the opportunity once again to hold this prestigious race. I would also like to thank Tony Rogers and his team who have worked tirelessly over the last few months with both athletes and sponsors to ensure this will be a fantastic evening. We do hope you have a great night and thank you for coming along to support what is the highlight of the Wellington Athletics Calendar.
