Run 521

There were four starters in the run this week. Thanks to Monica for coming along to do the time keeping duties.

Jacinta was the only person to be completing the 2 km distance. In the longer distances, once the handicaps had been accounted for, Paul was the first person over the line this week. Nada managed second place and Jon was in third place.

No-one ran a personal best time or was within 15 seconds of their PB this week.

This was the last week of the current season (and the last run of the year). Our next scheduled run will be on Saturday January 2 at 7:30 am for anyone who can make it. This will start the new season in a new year which will hopefully see us continue running each week.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all of our runners, past and present, a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Have a wonderful festive season and enjoy time with your families.

The scores for the last two seasons will be added together (a total of only 9 runs over the two seasons) to find the winner of season 32/33.

Run 520

 There were six starters in the run along the banks of the Yarra this week.

Jacinta was the only person to complete the 2 km distance. In the longer distances, everyone ran 5 km this week and Monica was again the first person over the line once the handicaps were taken into consideration. Alicia came in second, only 5 seconds behind her, and Jon and Nada were only separated by one second for third and fourth place. Atsuko was the final person over the line this week.

One person managed to run within 15 seconds of their PB: well run again Monica.

Next week the run will be on SUNDAY 20 December at 7:30am as there is a Christmas Market occurring on Saturday. 

This will be the last run of the year and of this combined season. Our next scheduled run after this will be on Saturday 2 January for anyone who is available.

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

Run 519

 Hi all,

We officially started back last week and will continue to run for the next few weeks until the end of this season. I will manually ad this season's results onto the runs that began at the start of the year to create a 2020 mega-season so don't have the official ladder ready to go yet (but can say that Monica is doing very well).

This week there were five runners who started out for either 3 km or 5 km. We all started together to spread out over the run and not have too many people gathered at the start/finish line. Thanks to Dennis for doing the timekeeping duties.

Once the handicaps had been added onto the run times, it was Monica who came out with a win this week. Atsuko managed to beat out Paul by two seconds for second place. Jozica was not too far behind in fourth with Nada at the rear of the field this week.

There was one runner within 15 seconds of their PB - well run Monica.

Next week the run will be on Saturday morning at 7:30 am. The following week will be a SUNDAY run and that will be the last run for the year (we don't usually run between Christmas and New Year).

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

We're BACK!!

 Hi all,

We plan to restart the runs again and there will be a run this weekend at 7:30am on SUNDAY - Warrandyte Market is on again on Saturday.

If you want to get back in to running, we will try to remain socially distanced at the start/finish and follow the government's COVID guidelines.

Paul
