M43 James Atkinson 5000m 15m20

Just found the Results from the Victorian Master Champs here 

Of course there are probably scores of performances of merit however I seem to only concentrate on Distance events around my age group so here are the performances I think need re publishing! For me M43 James Atkinson 5000m 15m20 was a terrific performance! I remember James passing me in the last few K's of the Gold Coast Half last year, I was thinking "is this guy a M45???", he will be a serious contender in our M45 ranks in a couple of years! (Hopefully I'll evade him again by stepping up to M50!!). Scott Lawrence who beat me over 1500m in last years Nationals in Sydney has stepped up to the mark and run a 5000m which is good to see!
M46 Allan Cook continues to show great 800m form and also takes out the 1500m! I met M52 Phil Bowes in Hobart, he told me to say "Hi to Ronnie!" (sorry I'm passing on the message so late!), Phil is a great performer over 5000m, and sure to be up there in the Nationals in Adelaide over Easter Weekend.
With Jamie and Keith not competing in Adelaide I think the Nationals will be a fought out (at least in the middle distances ) by lots of these Victorian boys.
