Prize money boosted

THERE are more rewards on offer for the minor placings at next weekend’s Coast to Coast, but achieving one of those places just got a whole lot harder, said race director Glen Currie.

An extra $1500 each will be given to the second and third placegetters in both the men’s and women’s Longest Day competitions.

Third place will now receive $2500 and second place will get $4500, while the Longest Day winner will continue to receive $10,000.

The race is on February 13.
