Run 239

I want to thank everyone for showing up for last weekends run. It was great to get together for a bit of Xmas feasting.

Jodi, myself and the family also want to thank you for your well wishes as we move to QLD in a few weeks.

It has been an outstanding 4 years running the event down by the river and we will miss everyone we have met through the run including the different people we pass each morning.

I also want to thank those that have put up their hand to continue the event and I will work with them to handover the details.

There were 22 people participating and it was great to see Pete again after he managed to spare some time out of a very hectic schedule. Appreciate your assistance with the time keeping especially with so many participants. Great work.

With a few people finishing under the 30 minute mark - Alan, Janette, Jozica and Lewis the win was left open for Jarrah after he has taken some time out for other sporting commitments on the weekend. Nicely done.
He was followed closely by Alex C and Atsuko.

There were a number of PBs:

David D - 2 minutes 4 seconds
Alan - 1 minute 58 seconds
Jarrah - 26 seconds
Owen C - 12 seconds
Alex C 10 seconds
Janette - 9 seconds
Caitlin F - 2 seconds

The thought of breakfast obviously brought the best out of everyone.

I hope to see you all again this Saturday 29 November 2014 at 7:00am

All new runners and walkers are welcome.

Run 236, 237 and 238

A massive thanks to Nada for taking on the run coordinator role over the last 2 weeks. Great work.

Run 236 saw Paul take out a win followed by Nada and Jozica. It was great to see Caitlin run her first 5ks since starting with us. Well done and thanks for testing Nada out on her timekeeping.

Run 236 saw Steve take out the win followed by Atsuko and Nada.

Run 237 - I met up with Nada to run and get a quick handover before the commencement of today's event. She ran the 5k early and as I didn't have an updated timesheet she also decided to run a further 3k with everyone else. I was definitely put to shame.

Jon had a win this week, I don't know how he does it with cinnamon running with him each week. Great effort. This has placed him at the top of the ladder overtaking Nada for the first time this season. I believe it was equal standings prior to my leave. Jon was followed by Paul and Nada. I was lucky last after a couple of weeks off.

I also cannot forget to mention Barbara who continues to come out and join us. Barbara hit the 50 run milestone this week.

Also worth a mention is Steve who this week hit the 100 run mark.

Well done to you both it is an achievement to get to these milestones. We can celebrate a bit more at the breakfast next weekend.

Next run will be Sunday 24 November 2014 at 7:30am due to our Xmas celebration. All are welcome. We will run and then head up for breakfast.
