Monaghan’s milestone run

11 May 2022

Elise Monaghan celebrated her 18th birthday with a Stawell Amateur Athletics Club win. 

Monaghan won the eight-kilometre handicap ahead of Simon Edge and Drew Christian. 

She has put a lot of time into her running and recently ran sub-six minutes in a 1500-metre Black Ranges school event to take out the win. She carried that form into the Black Ranges school cross country three-kilometre race and won it in 14 minutes.

Jessica Maffescioni and Nathan Baker were fastest female and male runners at Stawell Amateur Athletics Club’s event.

The ‘Glitter Angels’ will be running ‘50K in May’ to raise money for the fight against MS. MND beanies can be ordered through the club. 

The Stephen Baird five-kilometre handicap is scheduled for Saturday. All runners are to meet on course at Centre Road and Bonnie Dundee track from 9.30am for a 10am start.
