It was a glorious morning down by the river and there were 13 starters for the run this morning. Someone had forgotten to bring down the time sheet, so we had a mass start today. Next week will also be a mass start for the end of the season, so please be down at the starting line by 7:00 am.
After adding in the handicaps for this week, it was another win for Monica (her second this season), coming in with 14 seconds to spare. Jacinta ran well into second place and then Atsuko who was only 1 second ahead of Niels. Jozica and Emma were within 10 seconds of each other in 5th and 6th places respectively. Another group of runners was behind them in Dennis, Steve, Tessa, James and Alicia and Peter rounded out the field in the longer distances this morning. Caitlyn took her dog, Saga, for a leisurely stroll around the 2 km course.
There was one person who managed a personal best time for their distance this morning:
Well done Monica who beat her previous PB by 16 seconds.
No-one else was within 15 second of their PB.
Next week is the FINAL run for the season and will be a MASS START at 7:00 am on Saturday 31 December.
New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stage during he season.

Run 345
There were nine runners by the river this morning running the 3, 4 and 5 km courses with Paul doing the timing this week.
Amelia was the first runner home, but was just bit too quick and missed the 30 minute mark by six seconds and therefore has broken again this week. That left the way for Monica to come in for a perfectly timed run, winning this week by arriving at 30:05. Peter tried hard to catch her but was held off for second place.
Dennis ran well to be ahead of Atsuko, with Jozica nipping at her heels. Tessa and Jacinta rounded out the runners this week.
There was one person who ran a personal best time for their distance this week:
Well done Amelia for beating your previous PB by 36 seconds.
One other person was within 15 seconds of their PB:
Well run Monica.
Next week is the SECOND LAST run of the season and will be on Saturday 24 December at 7:00 am. We will also be running on Saturday 31 December for anyone who is around and that will be our final run this season (and therefore a mass start).

Run 344
It was another lovely morning and we had 11 starters with people running or walking each of the distances: 2, 3, 4 and 5 km. Thanks to Monica for doing the timing this morning.
Paul was the only person walking and jogging the 2 km course this morning. In the main event, the first person over the line was Amelia, but she had run too fast this morning and came in before the magical 30 minute mark and so can't be awarded maximum points. After the 30 minute mark, the person in first place today was Jozica who had just a seven second lead on Peter, with Jacinta only a second behind him.
Further back in the field were Tessa and Atsuko, a little ahead of Alicia. Steve, Harrison and Jon all came in within ten seconds of each other to round out the runners this morning.
There was only one personal best time recorded this morning:
no surprises that it was Amelia, who beat her previous PB by 1 minute and 20 seconds.
No-one else was within 15 seconds of their personal best time.
Next week the run will be on SUNDAY 18 December at 7:30 am as there is a Christmas market on Saturday.

Run 343
It was a lovely Sunday morning for a run along the Yarra and heaps of people thought it was great for a walk with dogs as well. It made the run a bit more challenging to be dodging around everyone, but 11 people came down for the run.
Taking on the 2 km course were Margaret and Jacinta running and Paul (with two dogs) walking. Margaret continues to cut time off her run every week.
In the main event people were running 3, 4 and 5 km. Atsuko had a perfectly timed run coming in just one second after the 30 minute mark, Amelia ran very well into second position and Nada just held off Monica for third place. Jozica was only seconds behind them, and Peter, Tessa and Jon rounded out the field.
Only one runner was able to beat their previous personal best time at the distance they ran this morning:
well done to Amelia who beat her previous 3 km record by 57 seconds.
No-one else was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Next week the run will be on Saturday 10 December at 7:00 am, but we will be back to Sunday the following week due to the Christmas Market.
New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.
Our Christmas dinner will be on Thursday 8 December at the Warrandyte Pub at 7:30 pm. Please RSVP to Joz if you can come so she can book a table - just a text saying how many will be there (0424 652 115).
