Runs 621 and 622

 Run 621

Thanks to Atsuko for doing the timekeeping duties for this week. It was great to see Troy and Zhann return to have another go at the run this week.

Atsuko was the only person to take on the 2 km distance this week. Harrison was the first person over the line after the 30 minute mark in his first 6 km run with the group. Jon came in second, while Zhann and Troy were the last runners over the line today.

There were two personal best times recorded apart from people running their distance for the first time: Troy took 6 minutes and 26 seconds off his previous 6 km best time, and Atsuko took a massive 8 minutes and 5 seconds off her previous 2 km best.

Run 622

It was a lovely morning for the weekly run along the banks of the Yarra in Warrandyte. Thanks to Nada for running early and then doing the time-keeping duties this week.

Paul was the only person running the shorter, unhandicapped 2 km distance today. In the longer distances, Troy was the first over the line, but ran too quickly based on his previous 3 km time and finished before the 30 minute mark. This left the win open for Nada this week. Astuko took out second place ahead of Tony and Jozica was the last person over the line this week.

One person managed a personal best time this week: Congratulations to Troy who took 3 minutes and 55 seconds off his previous 3 km time. Great running.

Next week the run will be on Saturday 24 June with the clock starting at 7:30 am.

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