Big names strut their stuff in Games dress rehearsal
SOME of the stars of the Australian track and field team got a feel for the MCG in the combined invitational meeting and Victorian championships last night.
Craig Mottram provided a sub four-minute mile - appropriately so with the world’s second sub four-minute runner, Victoria Governor John Landy - looking on. Jana Pittman ran her fastest 400 metres hurdles of the season, backing up well from her heat the previous night.
Sarah Jamieson also won the women’s mile impressively, John Steffensen looked right at home winning the men’s 400m and Scott Martin continued to dominate the throwing ring.
