Swans fly-over at Jackson’s
Airport
Port Moresby Road Runners tackled
Radar Hill at Seven-Mile the main event on Saturday - 7km run.
Swans Pinampio had no time to admire the view over Jackson’s
Airport as he charged down the steep descent to record yet another
victory in a time of 27 minutes 45 seconds.
Not far behind was the evergreen veteran Roger Hollis followed by
James Gurumi who overshot an early turn-off and had to make up
ground.
In the 2km dash, Joe Kaikai who put his more fancied rivals to the
knife in scoring a narrow victory by seven seconds over David
Rueben and Akis Ivia, a further eight seconds in arrears. The
organisers welcomed many first time runners who participated over
the two courses.
