Run 230 and 231

Easy points for anyone showing up over the school holidays - even for me.

Last week saw Nada take out the win over Jon. This meant her handicap for this week needed to be adjusted.

With a few more runners this week and a nice sunny spring day we saw Caitlin pick up a well deserved win. This has shot her well up the consistency rankings. Well done. Caitlin was closely followed by Nada and Doug, however this was prior to the handicap adjustment.

I should also mention that both Lewis and Miles did the 100 metre dash to the large tree and back with Lewis just taking out the honours.

We will conduct the award presentations at the next run which will be held on Sunday at 7:30am. Remember this is the start of daylight savings so remember to wind your clocks forward an hour before heading off to bed.

Next run Sunday 5 October 2014 at 7:30am.

All new runners and walkers are welcome.

It was another cold morning for our run. 

A welcome to Thomas who came all the way from Warrnambool to join us for the morning's run. Thanks to Owen K for showing him the course.

It was a fairly matched start this morning with a number of runners all starting off around the same time. This meant they were able to keep an eye on each other and plan their move on the first spot. The winner this week was Atsuko with a PB of 5 seconds .Well done. Nada came second and Jozica third also with a PB.

For the 2k runners both Lewis and Owen K ran PBs obviously to keep warm. Lewis - 1 minute 21 seconds and Owen K 32 seconds.

A reminder to everyone that the start time has changed.

Next run is Saturday 20 September 2014 at 7:00am.

I also need to apologise as I won't be around this weekend for the run. I will see if someone can run the event for me. It will also mean a postponement of the presentations. Sorry.

Remember all new runners are welcome.

Socks to Olie.

Run 228

It was nice to see a number of Dads out this morning working up an appetite. The mouth was watering just thinking about the beautiful breakfasts being prepared for Father's Day. Our place was no exception.

This week was the first run of the new season and whilst a little chilly it was a beautiful morning. As spring is in the air we saw some fast times with Paul and Alex producing PBs to unfortunately come in under the 30 minutes. This meant Jon took out the win for the first run. 2nd went to myself and 3rd position went to Nada.

Welcome back to Amanda who is recovering from injury. I know very much how she feels at the moment.

I won't have the medals ready for next week so will aim for the week after, being the 20th. Well done to Nada who took out top honours for season 14. Paul K taking out 2nd and Steve K taking out 3rd. For the youngsters Caitlin took out the win with Jarrah in 2nd place.

Great effort everyone.

PBs
Alex C - 39 seconds
Paul K - 11 seconds

Jozica within 15 seconds.

Next run is Saturday 13 September 2014 at 7:00am. Please note the new time for spring.

All new runners and walkers are welcome.
