Run 569

There were eight starters in the run along the banks of the Yarra this morning. The rain held off for our run, which made it a pleasant morning. Thanks to Nada for running early and doing the timekeeping duties this week.

Paul was the only person taking on the 2km distance this week, walking with his dogs. In the longer, handicapped distances the first person over the line was Tony followed by Hayden. Harrison and Atsu managed third and fourth place. Jon was less than ten seconds ahead of Nada in the race for fifth position and Jozica was the last person over the line today.

Harrison was the only person to run a PB this week in his first 5km run with us. No-one else managed to be within 15 seconds of their PB.

Next week the run will be on Saturday 21 May at 7:30am. Come along for a run before you go to do your democratic duty!

We awarded the trophy for the winner of the past two seasons (as a combined season due to COVID lockdowns). The winner was Hayden with an amazing 162 points from his top ten runs for the combined seasons. Second place was Jon with a total of 95 points.

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