- Burnie_Gift abstract "The Burnie Gift is a professional footrace held in Burnie, Tasmania, traditionally on New Year's Day.First run in 1885, the race is conducted by the Tasmanian Athletic League in conjunction with the Burnie Athletic Club. The race is held on a grass track at West Park Oval in Burnie. A sprint event, the Burnie Gift is conducted over the traditional 'Gift' distance of 120 metres. Prior to 1973 the distance was 130 yards.Athletes are allocated handicaps with a range from scratch (running the full 120 metres) to the current limit of 12.00 metres. An athlete off 12.00m would run 108 metres. Most athletes (and winners) run from a handicap between 5.0m and 10.0m, thereby covering anywhere from 115m to 110m. Athletes are separated by lane ropes as opposed to painted lanes on synthetic tracks. The finish line is a finishing gate that each athlete must run through to record a time.In recent years the prize pool for the race has been worth $15,000, with a first prize of $10,000.The Burnie Carnival is the premier running carnival in Tasmania and is considered one of the 'big three' professional Gifts in Australia along with Victoria's Stawell Gift and the Bay Sheffield in South Australia. Along with the feature event, the Burnie carnival includes races over 90m, 400m and 1600m and includes a Women's Burnie Gift. The Burnie carnival is one of three Tasmanian Christmas Carnivals conducted over a seven-day period from 26 December to January 1. The other carnivals are held at Latrobe and Devonport.Dean Capobianco (1991) was the first athlete to win the race off scratch (running the full 120 metres). Joshua Ross (2004 and 2007) is the only man to have won the Gift twice off the scratch mark. Capobianco and Ross are the only national 100m champions to have won the Gift.WINNERS (since 1970): 2015: Simon Fitzpatrick VIC 2014: Adam Coote VIC 2013: Jacob Despard TAS 2012: Brendan Cole (athlete) ACT 2011: Robbie James SA 2010: Ollie Wurm VIC 2009: Clay Watkins SA 2008: Duncan Tippins SA 2007: Joshua Ross NSW 2006: Cameron Yorke WA 2005: Luke Whitney TAS 2004: Joshua Ross NSW 2003: Carnival abandoned due to rain 2002: Darren Rogers WA 2001: Craig Brown VIC 2000: Matt Stevenson TAS 1999: Simon Bresnehan TAS 1998: Shaun Turale TAS 1997: Paul Pearce VIC 1996: David Downie TAS 1995: Paul Slupecki VIC 1994: Shane Hearn WA 1993: Simon Bresnehan TAS 1992: Todd Ireland VIC 1991: Dean Capobianco WA 1990: Robert Kirsopp VIC 1989: John Riggs TAS 1988: Anthony Grima VIC 1987: Frank Corsello VIC 1986: Mark Hipworth VIC 1985: Wayne Johncock TAS 1984: Gary Wescombe TAS 1983: Lee Berwick TAS 1982: Michael Geary TAS 1981: Neil King VIC 1980: Gary French TAS 1979: Ian Hagger VIC 1978: Gary Wescombe TAS 1977: Steve Roach TAS 1976: Kevin Portch NSW 1975: Gerard Thompson TAS 1974: John Mowat VIC 1973: M Seymour TAS 1972: Ralph Heffernan NSW 1971: Barry Poulter NSW 1970: Kerry Badcock TAS↑ ↑".
