Run 336

It was great to see 18 starters for the run along the river on Saturday to run and/or walk 2, 3, 4 or 5 km distances. Thanks to Monica for taking the times this week.

We had two new faces to the group: Imogen and Charlie. It was great to see you there for the weekend and we hope to see you again soon. Margaret and Paul took off to run/walk the 2 km course and Margaret continues to improve on her times each week - great work.

In the main event, Helen came in well before the allocated 30 minutes was up and so is a breaker this week. It was a struggle to keep up with everybody coming in very close together, but the winner turned out to be Jozica in an almost perfectly timed run, finishing at 30 minutes and 2 seconds. Caitlyn continues to run well, coming in second place just ahead of Nada, with Jacinta and Jon close behind.

Imogen on the 3 km course (I will fix the details below) and Charlie on the 4 km course (as first timers) were allocated a finish time of 31 minutes and ended up in 6th position, just seconds ahead of James. Steve was next, ahead of Harrison and Atsuko. Peter, Alicia, Tessa and Catherine rounded out the field.

There were two people who ran their personal best time for the distance today:
Helen beat her previous time by 4 minutes and 38 seconds (wow!),
and Caitlyn who beat her previous best by 10 seconds.


and two were within 15 seconds of their PB:
Jozica and Nada - well done.

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

Our next run will be on Saturday 22 October at 7:00 am.
