Run the Tan

On Sunday 30 April, 10 Tintern Grammar students took part in the ‘Run the Tan’ event around the Tan track. The students took part in the ‘Battle of the Schools’ race which was one lap of the Tan track, a distance of 3.827km. Conditions were perfect for running with a cool morning and blue skies. Our students ran extremely well in the event against strong competition from schools around Melbourne.
