Last year Mark McNamara called through a 5.4 from memory. It was as they were running down the back at Riccarton, at about the 1400 metre mark. The whole grandstand shook pretty violently but he never missed a beat, other than a quick mention of how the building was shaking...

I was watching that race on the TV Dizzy,and I thought there was a problem with the camera as the picture went a bit blurry. Then Mark McNamara commented that there had been a shake.

I must add I have felt a 5.4 in Christchurch and that was a humdinger. The 7.0 last week off the coast of Opunake seemed very minor compared to what I have felt in Chch.
