On Saturday 14th June, Millie McFadzien competed in the NZ Secondary Schools Cross Country held in Whangarei. Running in the extremely competitive Senior Girls 4000m event, Millie crossed the finish line in 9th place out of 110 runners in a time of 15:29 minutes. This top-10 finish means Millie has qualified for the NZ Secondary Schools Team that will travel to Queensland, Australia in September this year to compete in the Australian Schools Cross Country Champs. Congratulations Millie!
Millie also teamed up with fellow Southerners, Sienna Mackley (Wakatipu HS), Hunter Flowers (SBHS) and James Weber (Wakatipu HS), to run in the Mixed Team Relay for Southland, this team taking out the Gold Medal!
