Run 143

Congratulations Peter. With a mass start on the last run of the season and the year Peter ran his 100th run and took out the win.  What a fabulous way to finish the year and I hope we see you there for the next 100 runs!

Alan and Janette also made a cameo appearance before they venture off on their RunRAW 2013 - 365 Marathons in 365 Days! They will be departing Federation Square at 8:00am on New Years Day and we are all welcome to run the first few kilometres with them down St Kilda Rd (then just catch the tram back!). It would be awesome if some of the Warrandyte River Runners could make it in to see Alan and Janette off on the start of their amazing adventure.

Final results - Congratulations Steve. This season it was Steve's determination that saw him take out the main prize for season 9, 22 points in front of his nearest rivals. And those nearest rivals were Peter and Paul who finished in equal 2nd, with Lou finishing in 3rd position as first female. Owen deserves a very special mention as the winner of our kids division. He always turns up and puts in a grand effort with a smile on his face. Congratulations to you all. We will have the presentations at our first run for 2013 (see below).

Thank you to everyone who has made it along to River Runners during 2012 and I hope you have enjoyed the running as much as the socialising. Have a very safe and happy Christmas and I look forward to seeing you in 2013 for our 4th year of River Runners.

The first run for season 10 will be on Saturday 5 January 2013 at 7:00am. Enjoy the break and I'll see you there.
