It was a beautiful morning for a run or a walk along the banks of the Yarra River this morning and 8 people came down to join us.
We welcomed Angus who came along this morning and walked the 2km course with Cath and Leanne (and Maple and Honey).
Jacinta was once again running he 5km course and she took off like a rocket, no-one was able to come anywhere near her but she did finish well before the designated 30 minute mark and so didn't pick up full points. That honour went to Nada who ran very well, coming in first with a personal best time and earning the maximum 20 points to secure her spot on the top of the leaderboard for this season. With only one run to go, there is no chance of anyone overtaking her now!
Tessa and Alicia ran the 4km comfortably to finish next, but Alicia had her handicap adjusted and was relegated to fifth place overall. Paul was not very far behind the two girls having run the 5km course.
There were two personal best times today:
Nada beat her previous best time by 3 seconds, and
Jacinta beat her previous best by a massive 1 minute and 51 seconds - great running!
No-one else was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Our next run will be on Saturday 30 April at 7:00am and is the last run of this season. As is usual for our last run it will be a mass start, so everyone needs to be there by 7:00 please.
New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.

Runs 309 and 310
Run 309
There were 8 starters in the run this weekend, and it was Jon who came out on top, coming in first place just 5 seconds ahead of Steve. Nada ran well into third place. The first three runners all completed the 5 km course.
The rest of the field ran the 3 km course, and Peter managed to just beat Jacinta over the line. Lisa was not too far behind and Paul and Ed had set out for a slow run and came in at the back of the field.
No one ran a personal best time over their distance and no one was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Run 310
There were 7 starters this morning over three different distances and it was great to see Sam back running the 3 km course. Nada managed to be first over the line, narrowly beating out Steve. Jacinta had stepped up to the 5 km course and ran very well into third place, just ahead of Sam. Peter, Jon and Tessa rounded out the field for the day.
No one ran a personal best time and no one was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Next week will be the second last run of the current season, and the top of the leader board is still not completely settled. Remember that only the best 10 runs for the season are counted towards your consistency points.
The run will be on Saturday 23 April at 7:00 am.
