There was a little rain around this morning, but it certainly wasn't cold for the run. Most people decided to run off at scratch so handicaps had to be added on at the end. Thanks to Monica for coming down to do the time keeping duties this morning.
In the 2 km distance, Paul was first home with Rachel not too far behind him and Jacinta walked the distance today. In the longer distances, once the handicaps were added in it was Cormick who took out today's points, coming in ahead of Matthew with Kieran in third place only seconds behind. Kaje ran into fourth place and was only the second person to have run the 6 km distance with the group. Nada took out sixth place and Steve was in seventh. Alicia was only 5 seconds ahead of Atsuko and Adrienne was last over the line today.
No-one managed to run a personal best time today and no-one was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Next week the run will be on SUNDAY 7 July at 7:30 am.
New runners and/or walkers are welcome at any time during the season.

Run 474
The rain held off for the duration of the run this morning and the 11 starters all ran off at scratch so handicaps were added on to the times afterwards. Thanks to Jacinta for walking early and doing the timekeeping today. Thanks as always to Quinton's Supa IGA for continuing to provide a box of fruit for the runners.
Paul was the first back this morning after taking on the 2km course, with Mark and Jacinta both walking 2 km today. In the longer, handicapped distances after the times were adjusted Amelia was first over the line followed by Monica. Both runners had gone out too quickly and returned before the 30 minute mark and were classified as breaking today. That left the win open for Randall in a well-timed run this week. He managed to come in just 11 seconds ahead of Daniel. Matthew took out third place with Kaje in fourth. Rachel and Peter were the last runners over the finish line today.
After the scores for this week were added to the leaderboard, Monica has jumped into first position overall. She sits just ahead of Kieran and Cormick with Randall and Nada not far behind. Looks like this season may be a close finish with 10 runs still to go. Remember that only the scores from your top 10 runs go towards your overall score for the season.
There were three personal best times recorded today:
Mark managed to take 19 seconds off his previous 2 km walk time,
Monica was 26 seconds faster than her previous best time, and
Amelia took 45 seconds off her best 4 km time.
No-one else was within 15 seconds of their PB.
Next week the run will be on Saturday 29 June at 7:30 am.
