FEARNLEY CAPTURES NATIONAL TITLE AT AUSTRALIAN ATHLETICS CHAMPIONSHIPS

While Hunter discuss thrower Benn Harradine withdrew from his final to focus on training, there was still success for the region.

Kurt Fearnley produced a blistering final lap to claim the national 1500-metre wheelchair title.

Meanwhile, Newcastle runner Bridey Delaney also managed a sprint-finish in the women’s 1500.

A big lunge on the line saw her finish fourth – just one second off an Olympic qualifying time.
