55 starters ran in near perfect conditions this evening, 11 personal best times were recorded.  We were fortunate to welcome 6 new people to our event.

The school cross country attracts lots to come and test themselves out before they tackle their school event. Some of the kids that came along this week are pictured. Goodluck to you all. 

Marlin Bayley, Tayah Hancock and Riley Nimmo ran outstanding times over the 2 kilometre distance and this trio will impress in their representative events.

Our Special Olympics representative Carissa Morgan once again improved and recorded another personal best time in the 2 kilometre event.


Just a reminder that the first Batemans bay park run is fast approaching starting on Saturday 7 May meeting at 7.45am for an 8am start. The run is 5km in distance, is free to register, runners and walkers need to bring a 'printed barcode' which you get after registering at (parkrun.com.au). There is a facebook page as well "Batemans Bay parkrun" for any additional information. Go along and support this great community initiative.

See you next week at 4.30pm.

This evening there were perfect conditions for running and as a result we had 74 starters of which 12 were new to our event.

Even though there is a degree of difficulty with the ongoing construction work with the Candlagan Creek New Bridge there were 8 personal best times.

Bruce Dickinson (pictured with his family Margaret, Emily and James) recorded his 30 run with a personal best in the 3.5 kilometre by 12 seconds.

We welcomed back to our run the Canberra based Hinksman family.  The girls Alice and Lucy are outstanding distance runners and produced excellent times over the 2 and 3.5 kilometres events.

We had a visit from the organiser of the Park Run, which will start in Batemans Bay on Saturday 7 May.  There will be a trial run on Saturday 30 April for the organisers to run a practice event. Everyone is welcome to come along and get any information they need. The Park run is free and will meet along the foreshore at Batemans bay  along from the bridge. The event will run every Saturday meeting at 7.45am for an 8am start. This is an exciting new addition to the running scene in the district. We will post more information as the start date approaches.

See you all next Wednesday at 4.30pm

The first run of the school holidays attracted 39.  This is a good number considering those runners missing, who are recovering from the Bay Triathlon and the Canberra Running Festival.  

As usual the younger runners are too busy with other holiday activities. Nevertheless, there were 10 personal best times and we welcomed Ray and Jumamurra Smith and Larni Shepherd for their first run.

Leah Cook from Ballina visiting the district participated in the event.

The feature race of this evening was between Tayah Hancock and James Dickinson, who tested one another over the 3.5 kilometres. In the end it was Tayah, who pulled away recording a 30 second personal best time of 17.43. Well done to all.

Pictured is Rachael Wade who received her 30 run shirt last week with her husband Chris, daughter Makayla and son Patrick.

See you all next Wednesday at 4.30pm.
