This is the first time that Jason has won this award and indicates just how well he walked on Saturday. Competing in the 5km roadwalk, he stormed home with a winning time of 22:30 and looked superb the whole way. Jason first came down to VRWC in May 2009, having run with St Kevins up till that stage. He had no technique whatsover and was all arms and legs, walking the 4km club race in 27:43. He has come a long way since then! He has been in great form lately, coming 4th in the Victorian 5000m track championship in March in a PB 22:19, quickly followed by another big PB of 45:39 in the Australian 10,000m track championship. Two weeks ago he placed 3 rd in the Victorian 15km roadwalk championship in a PB 1:14:27. Well done Jason. Keep up the good work!
