Despite a very wet afternoon and a very wet course, 26 competitors and 3 officials braved the conditions and Week 8 was conducted. Being the first Saturday in the month also meant our afternoon tea get together also went ahead.
Special thanks to Chrissy Suffolk for providing a very large plate of her popular fancy chocolate crackles which were certainly much appreciated by those who were able to stay, after a harder than usual run in the rain.
Improvements were not expected time wise in the very wet and cold condition, with a lot choosing a shorter course which is understand able. However 7 year old Hallie Browne in her third 1k event did improve by 8 seconds for a PB time. Well done Hallie and much appreciation to all 26 competitors plus a very fit dog for your participation, from 5yrs old to 65yrs !!
Look forward to Week 9 on Saturday 11th. trusting weather condition will improve. New runners and walkers always welcome.
Quote for the month of May:
Running and walking is not about being better than someone else.
It’s about being better than you used to be.
