Run 483

It was great to have 11 starters again in the run this week, and great to see Hayden back for another run with the group. Thanks again to Jacinta for still coming along to do the time keeping duties each week at the moment.

It seems it was a quick morning today, with the first four people in before 30:11. In the 2 km distance, Paul was the only competitor. In the longer, handicapped distances, Jon was first over the line today but came in just before the 30 minute mark and was classified as breaking. That left the win once again for Randall who continues to run well. Kieran was in second only one second ahead of Atsuko. Hayden managed fourth place this week and Nada managed fifth. Tony, Steve, Cormick and Adrienne were the last ones over the line.

There were four personal best times recorded today:
Kieran took another 15 seconds off his PB,
Atsuko managed to run 19 seconds faster than her previous best,
Hayden was 26 seconds faster than last week, and
Randall took another 27 seconds off his best 5 km time.

One other person was within 15 seconds of their PB:
Well run Paul.

In the consistency results for the season, it is one of the closest results we have seen for a few seasons, with three people who could win after next week's run - Randall, Kieran and Monica. As next week is the final run of the season, it will be a mass start with everyone taking off at 7:30 am so please be sure to get down nice and early.

Next week the run will be on Saturday 31 August at 7:30 am.

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