Run 19 - correction

My apologies, Narelle.

I made an error in my haste to get the results out yesterday before my course. Narelle actually joined us late and I had to adjust her starting time so I have now updated the run results.

Fortunately it didn't effect the Consistency Points Table so that remains unchanged.

Don't forget next weeks run is Sunday at 8:00am because it is market weekend.

Have a great week.

Run 19

Congratulations, Owen! This morning's wet and muddy run was obviously prime conditions for Owen who managed to cross the line first within 15 seconds of his PB (6 seconds to be exact). This gave him 18 points for the run - so close to maximum points.

Well done to everyone else who ventured out this morning - at least it wasn't as cold as last week! We saw 2 PB's run this week and 6 people running very close to their PB.

Next weekend is market weekend, so the run will be held on Sunday at 8:00am.

I won't actually be there next week but Rob will look after you and do a fantastic job of timekeeping and putting together the results.

Congratulations, Larry. Larry was the first to cross the line after the 30 minute mark, although because he stepped back to the 3km distance he is not eligible for the additional points.

During the course of the season you can increase the distance you run but if you go back to a lesser distance, you can only get the 1 point for finishing. This is to prevent people from playing the points system - we know how much that beautiful trophy is coveted.

Welcome to our new runner, Kristi. Now that she has had her first run we will make sure her handicap is allocated to make it challenging for next week.

It was extremely cold this morning and I recommend you bring along a hat, gloves and possibly long sleeves if we have similar conditions next week. There were lots of cold hands and noses today. I had ice on my windscreen this morning!

So I will see you next Saturday at 7:30am, down by the hut.

Congratulations, Luke! Luke has finally had his turn at taking out a win with a personal best landing him the maximum 20 points. So he has knocked Margaret off 1st place by 1 point.

It was a lovely mild morning down by the river this morning and it was great to see everyone running good times - 7 people ran a personal best, and 5 others came very close to theirs.

See you next Saturday 22nd May at 7:30am.

Here are some pics from presentation day. Well done to Lou, who took out the adults first place; Bianca as runner up; and Owen for winning the kids first place.

Run 16

Congratulations Lou! Not quite maximum points for today's win because Lou was 6 seconds off her personal best time.

Olie and Doug were obviously feeling a bit competitive today with them both running a PB and also breaking.

I look forward to presentations today at 3:00pm down at the electric bbqs adjacent to our start/finish line - it looks like it will be a beautiful day.

I have also added a breakdown of how the points are allocated - just scroll down to find it.

Next week's run is at 7:30am on Saturday 15th May. See you there!

Run 15 - Season 2 begins

Congratulations, Margaret! For someone who thought she wasn't feeling in peak condition this morning, Margaret has taken out the maximum 20 points by crossing the line first in a personal best time. Can't get any better than that.

Season 2 is now underway and everyone who ran today has a headstart on those who didn't (myself included).

Well done to everyone and I hope to see you next Saturday, 8th May at our regular winter time of 7:30am.

And don't forget presentations are also on next Saturday at 3:00pm. Just remember to rsvp via phone or email so I know how many people are coming.

See you then.
