Week Four – 25th July

Participants for the final Saturday of the middle month of winter certainly experienced perfect weather conditions.

For once the venue did not live up to its name, ‘Windy Willandra’.

 

It was nice to have some young visitors from areas further north joining us for their run. We hope they enjoyed a change of venue and appreciated the competition.

Congratulations to one of our keen youngsters, 6yrs old Cailin Burbage.  Cailin ran the 2k and sliced just over 2 minutes from her previous 2k time.  This top effort earned her the title of ‘Improver of the Week’.  However, not to be outdone by her daughter, Mother Laura also earned this title by improving her 6k time.  Not to be outdone by females and at the other end of the age scale, ‘Improver of the Week’ title was also earned by Kevyn Davis turning 72 this week. Kevyn managed to reduce his best 3k time by just over 1: 30.

 

Also, worthy to note were pleasing improvements by participants across all distances. These members have set themselves a new PB and should be proud of their achievements. Layla Prince 1k, Madeline Oke, and Ashley Spicer 2k, Evie Hill and Lizzie Hastedt  3k,  Hailey D’Ombrain and Josh Henry 4k and Jon Schol and Crissy Suffolk 6k.

 

Not quite 9-year-old Milly Hastedt was our lone walker this week, compliments Millie for completing the 3k on your own.   A big thanks to all Week 4 competitors for participating in an enjoyable afternoon activity.

 

Looking forward to Week 5, same time, same venue.   Keep up ‘social distancing’ to stay safe and well.       Remember to check notice board for August Quote of the Month and some more minus & plus handicaps!

New and visiting competitors very welcome to join us.  Suggested arrival time around 2.30pm.

Feel free to phone or email if more info. is required.
