Another perfect afternoon weatherwise and enjoyment wise, as runners and walkers made their way around the various distances.
6 year old Hudson Bryant took line honours in the 1k scoring 20 points. Hudson has run 5 1k’s and for his age time wise he is very consistent. Well done also to youngsters Hallie Browne and Hayley Astin-Briggs and 4yr old Spencer Bryant who enjoyed their activity. Great to have mothers Jodie and Lauren also enjoying the 1k with them.
Owen Harlor managed another good time for the 2k event which was a bit light on for competitors. Well done to Elijah Cook who displayed the best improvement.
The 3k distance was a very exciting finish with winner Hudson Economos just 3 seconds in front of Jesse Crangle and Frances Peabody who both finished on the same time. Congratulations boys for a fine display of great running. 3k Improver of the week award goes to Annalies Corse who improved her second run over this distance by just over 40 seconds.
4k event with just 4 competitors certainly were impressive with all chalking up their best time for this year. Well done girls and guys !
However, Joel Grimston was on his own in the 6k event but ran extremely well to improve by close to 2 minutes, achieving the Best Time on Record for his age which had to be under 35 minutes, well done Joel.
We really appreciated additional walkers joining our activity. This form of exercise , especially on grass is a healthy way to spend Saturday afternoon . A good opportunity to Walk & Talk and get to know other like minded folk.
Next Saturday is the first Saturday in the Month of May. This means our monthly afternoon tea time. So if you can stay a while please bring something to share. Tea , Coffee and cool drinks provided.
New members & visitors always welcome. Remember, Start time for all distances is 3.00pm.
Last chance to memorise Quote of the Month.
