It was a beautiful warm morning for a run along the banks of the Yarra and 17 people showed up for the run today. Thanks to Nada for starting us off and to Marcelle for helping out with some of the finishing times today. After adding on handicaps for those who started earlier than their scheduled time, the results were as follows:
In the 2 km distance, Tessa was first back followed by Margaret and Jacinta. For the longer distances, it was Paul who made it back first today, but he ran too quickly coming in under the 30 minute mark and being classified as a breaker today. That left the win open for Kieran, who came in ahead of Monica and Cormick, who both ended up on the same finishing time. Elizabeth ran well into fourth place with Jozica and Rachel taking out fifth and sixth respectively. Randall was next over the line ahead of Nada and Catherine. Peter, Mark, Jon and Matthew rounded out today's field.
There were three personal best times recorded today:
Kieran knocked another 2 seconds of his previous best time,
Paul food 8 seconds off his previous PB, and
Tessa took 21 seconds off her previous 2 km best time.
One other person was within 15 seconds of their PB:
well run Jozica.
Next week the run will be on Sunday 2 June at 7:30 am.
New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.

Run 469
There was definitely a chill in the air this morning as 13 people started the run along the banks of the Yarra in Warrandyte. Thanks very much to Jacinta for doing the timing before completing her 2 km walk this morning. We welcomed back Kaje after an extended absence from the group.
Most people took off at times which were not their handicaps so it was hard to know exactly who was in front today. After the handicaps were added in it was Kieran who managed to be first over the line today and gained the winning points. Paul managed to run into second place. Cormick was running strong today and managed third position ahead of Alicia. Rachel was next, 6 seconds ahead of Nada. Kate managed sixth place today, just ahead of Randall. Peter, Jon, Monica and Daniel rounded out the field.
There were no Personal Best times recorded today, and Kieran was the only person within 15 seconds of their PB.
This morning we also presented the winners of last season with their trophies and medals. Congratulations to the kids winner, Alicia, and runner up, Matthew. Well run for the season. In the Open section, Randall was the overall winner with 120 points for the season and Peter was the runner up with 80 points. Congratulations to everyone who came along to run at any stage during Season 28.
Next week the run will be on Saturday 25 May at 7:30am.

Run 468
It was another cold morning that saw 13 runners join in the run along the bank of the Yarra in Warrandyte this week. Thanks to Monica for coming along to do the timekeeping this week.
In the shorter, 2 km, distance there were four runners. Paul was first over the line followed by Caitlyn, Margaret and then Jacinta. In the longer, handicapped distances Genevieve was first to finish, just two seconds ahead of Alicia. Unfortunately for them, they came in before the 30 minute mark and were classed as breaking this week. That left the win open for Nada, only seconds ahead of Kieran and Cormick. Matthew ran well into fourth place just ahead of Randall. Jozica and Rachel were the last runners to finish today.
There were two personal best times recorded this week:
Alicia took 1 minute and 24 seconds off her previous PB and
Genevieve took 1 minute and 38 seconds off her best time.
No-one else was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Next week the run will be on Saturday 18 May at 7:30 am and we hope to present the winners of last season with their trophies and medals after the run.

In the longer distances, there was a draw for first place today with Monica and Cormick both registering the same time after handicaps were adjusted. Gary managed to be third over the line ahead of Paul and Alice (within 4 seconds of each other). Randall managed sixth place, only seconds ahead of Richard. Atsuko, Kieran and Jozica were the final runners to arrive today.
