It has been great to have Cath back running with us as she was one of the runners from very early on in the River Runners story, and fabulous to see Sam back and running the 3 km course.
First over the line was Steve, but in a blistering time so that he broke by coming in before the 30 minute mark. That left Nada to take out the win this week, with Jozica close behind in second place. Paul struggled to keep up with the front runners, but managed third place, closely followed by Atsuko and Cath who stepped up to the 3km course. Tessa, Sam, Alicia and Jon were the back runners for today's event.
There was only one person within 15 seconds of their personal best time:
well done to Nada and this has secured your place at the top of the consistency table for the moment.
Next week the run will be on Saturday 27 February at 7:00 am.
New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.

Run 301
It was a beautiful morning for a run along the edge of the Yarra, and there were 14 people who came along to the run this morning. Thanks to Peter and Dennis for doing the timing for us (and hope you are feeling better soon, Peter). A big welcome to Daniel and Rowen who joined us.
After time adjustments for people who wanted to run off earlier/later than their handicaps, the first over the line this morning was Atsuko with Tessa in second place, but they both finished before the 30 minute mark and so have broken this week. That left the maximum points for new runners, Daniel and Rowen, who ran their first 3km run today. Paul was not too far behind them. Jozica was breathing down Paul's neck over the finish line and Alicia came in just behind her, followed closely by Steve. Jon, Lisa and Jacinta rounded out those completing the 3, 4 or 5km courses.
Over the 2km course Niels was first over the line, closely followed by Lucas and Leanne.
There was only one person who beat a time that they had previously run at that distance:
Atsuko beat her previous 3km time by a whopping 2 minutes and 15 seconds. Well done!
We also presented the trophies for last season this morning.
Results for Season 18 were:
Kids section:
1st place to Niels with 19 points from 4 runs
2nd place to Tessa with 17 points from 13 runs (only the best 10 runs are counted towards the consistency total).
Overall section:
1st place to Peter with 105 points from 9 runs including 5 wins
2nd place to Jacinta with 79 points from 12 runs including 4 wins
Medals, trophies, chocolates and wine (for the adults) were awarded for these results.
New runners and walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.
Our next run will be on Saturday 13 February at 7:00am. We hope to see lots of people there.
