Track Meetings<\/p><\/div>\n

Fourteen New Zealand athletes have secured starts in the prestigious IAAF World Challenge event in Melbourne on Saturday evening.
\nThe meeting is the first of the IAAF 2013 series of fourteen Diamond League and fifteen World Challenge international events.
\nThe group includes winners of nine New Zealand senior championship titles at the recent New Zealand Track and Field Championships in Auckland.<\/p>\n

Stuart Farquhar has had a good start to his season getting the Javelin out over 80 metres at the New Zealand champs. The London Olympics finalist will be aiming to get out over 83.50 metres to get a World Champs A standard under his belt.
\nNew Zealand sprint champion Joseph Millar from Tauranga, will be taking on the best from Australia and several quick Americans over 100 and 200 metres.<\/p>\n

Hamish Carson (1500m) and Hugo Beamish (5000m) won their respective events at the New Zealand champs and will both race over the 5000 metres distance against a quality field including several Kenyans and top Australians.
\nMichael Cochrane will be aiming to repeat his victory at the Sydney Classic in 50.07 seconds several weeks ago when he races over 400 metres hurdles, aiming to crack 50 seconds for the first time.<\/p>\n

The meeting starts at 5.00pm (NZ time) and concludes at 9.30pm.<\/p>\n
