Run 254

We take great pleasure in welcoming two new runners to the field: Monica and Elke.

When the clock was started this morning there was just me representing the guys with 5 women ready to run. As I am still in recovery mode, I left at scratch to walk the 2km course, while Monica started on her 5km run. Peter arrived soon after which improved the male-to-female ratio a little.

Many thanks to Atsuko for helping out with the timing again while she is recovering.

Jozica continues to fly through the 5km course, coming very close to her PB this week, but she was pipped at the post by Elke who had a very good 3km run. Monica managed to break this week, and hopefully we will have her handicap sorted for her run next week.

Peter and Nada both ran consistently, with everyone being home well before the 32 minute mark.

No PBs this week.
Within 15 seconds - Jozica.

Congratulations to Peter on reaching his 150th run today - a phenomenal effort.

Several of us ended the morning with coffee at the nearby Warrandyte Cafe, and have decided to make this a regular event after our Sunday morning runs (and we will see how Saturdays go when the winter times kick in).

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

Our next run will be on Saturday 14 March at 7:00am.

No socks this week


PS.

I will be sporting a new "look" for next week as I will be shaving my head and beard for the Leukaemia Foundation's World's Greatest Shave on Friday 13 March. Eilish will also be shaving her head on the same day as well. You can support us by donating to this great cause at:
