    Some of the country's best track and field talent will be on show in Christchurch this afternoon as the city hosts it's annual International Track Meet


    Tom Walsh, Nick Palmer, Anna Grimaldi , Lisa Adams and Tiaan Whelpton are all set to compete in their respective events.

    Meet director Paul Coughlan says while the athletes have some big goals to chase, like Commonwealth Games qualifiers - the men's 100 metres in particular has piqued his interest.
