Runs 349 and 350

Having been away for last week's run, I am updating today for both last week and this week.

RUN 349

Seven people showed up this morning for the run along the banks of the Yarra in Warrandyte, with people running each of the distances on offer (2, 3, 4 and 5 km).

This morning saw Nada take out the win in the longer distances, being the first over the line after the 30 minute mark with Atsuko and Jozica in second and third places respectively. Tessa, Jacinta and Harrison rounding out the long course results. Dennis ran the 2 km course this week for the first time.

No-one managed to run a personal best time for their allocated distance this week and no-one was within 15 seconds of their PB.

RUN 350

Thanks to Atsuko for time-keeping today. This morning saw 11 people running over all of the distances, and Jacinta managed to hold on for her first win of the season. Angela came in second, just ahead of Will who in turn was just a second ahead of Nada and Peter after an adjustment on his handicap. Monica was not very far back from this group. Tessa and Amelia had a sprint finish between them in which Tessa managed to just hold on, with Steve only a short way behind. Paul rounded out the runners over the longer distances. Harrison had set out for a 3 km run, but after a fall decided to only run the 2 km course instead.

Again this week there was no-one who ran their PB for their chosen distance and no-one was within 15 seconds of their PB.

New runners and/or walkers are always welcome at any stage during the season. Come down and join us at the start/finish line opposite the lizard statue below Stiggants Reserve.

Next week the run will be on Saturday 28 January at 7:00 am.

Run 348

It was a very warm and muggy morning that saw 9 starters for the run along the river. It was great to see Angela back for the new season and thanks to Monica for doing the timings this week.

Dennis started off the new year with a well timed run, coming in just after the 30 minute mark. He was well ahead of second place getter, Angela. Atsuko managed to just hold off a late surge from Peter. Nada finished in fifth place just ahead of Paul and Jacinta, Jon and Harrison rounded out the field today.

Nobody managed to run a personal best time today and no-one was within 15 seconds of their PB.

Next week the run will be on Saturday 14 January at 7:00am.

New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.

Run 347

No update of results this week as it was the last week of the season.

There were seven runners starting out as a mass start and thanks to Caitlyn for starting us off this week.

The results will be finalised and trophies and prizes given in a few weeks.

Next week the run will be the first of the new season (and the new year) on Saturday 7 January at 7:00 am.

New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stager during the season.
