It was a lovely morning to run along the banks of the Birrarung-Yarra through Warrandyte before the temperature heats up for what looks to be a very hot week. Many thanks to Nada for coming along to handle the timekeeping duties for the five starters.
Two runners took on the shorter, non-handicapped 2 km distance this week. Well done to Paul and Dave. In the longer distances, James was the first runner home after the 30 minute mark, earning him the win. Stephen followed in second place, with Atsuko rounding out the field.
One personal best time was recorded this week. Well run to James, who took the win and earned the maximum 20 points for this run. Nobody else finished within 15 seconds of their PB.
After the run, we held several presentations. The winner of last season was announced as Paul, who scored 84 points from 11 runs during Season 48. Second place went to Nada, who overtook Atsuko in the final run of the season to finish with 78 points from 14 runs.
We also presented Nada with a prize for completing 500 runs with the group. What an amazing achievement! She was presented with a cap embroidered with “WRR 500”. Photos are available on our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/WarrandyteRiverRunners.
The next run will be on Saturday 31 January, with the timer starting at 7:30 am.
New runners and walkers are welcome at any stage during the season.
