25 January 2017

Ideal conditions drew an excellent number of starters to the last run for the summer school holidays. There were visitors from Melbourne and Canberra.

  

Personal best times were recorded by Harry Boyd, Renee Carver, Maureen Searson, Lisa Dixon, Glenn Blunt and Louise Cox.

The bulk of the 64 starters are young children, who show great enthusiasm and excitement with their performance. This is infectious as it involves the parents and of course encourages their friends to join in the event.

On 8 February, we will celebrate ten years of the event, which started on 7 February 2007 with 8 starters over the 5-kilometre distance. The event has flourished with the generous support of the Tomakin Sports and Social Club, who supplied the multi-timer recorder that allows us to handle the large numbers of participants. Damien and Judy Kennedy generously supply the Broulee runner shirts that are awarded to those completing 30 runs. Thanks to both parties for encouraging such a wonderful community event.

See you all next week at 5pm.

18 January 2017

Despite the variable weather conditions 43 people started in this evening’s event.  The oppressive heat turned to strong southerly winds, which assisted everybody on their way home.

Personal best times were recorded by Alba and Elani Van Der Meulan and Lisa Dixon.

We had visitors from Sydney and Temora.  The Slater sisters Penny and Katie from Sydney, ran the best times for women athletes since Ellie O’Kane set the record back in September 2015. Given better conditions and a clear run Penny would get back the record, which she held prior to Ellie’s record run.

New starters Glenn Blunt and Dianne Gee walked the 3.5 kilometres after hearing about the event in the media and were both delighted with their performance and are keen to return and improve on their times.

See you all next Wednesday at 5pm.

The cool change helped the 59 starters in this evening’s run to record excellent times.

Personal best time were recorded by Mollie and Katie Kennedy, Nina McLachlan. Declan McPherson, Harry Leach, Poppy Mitchell, Emersyn and Taryn Carver, Graeme Hincksman, and Gabby Golds.

We had visitors from Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra and Griffith.

The very young can achieve with a little help from their mother.  Nina McPherson was carried and assisted to achieve her 30th appearance at the run. There is always great joy and excitement when the little ones run that last ten metres of the event.  Nina was very proud of herself in her 30- run shirt.

The highlight of the evening was Jo Flood recording her 100th run.  Her first run was on 31 October 2012 and her time then was 25.54. Her personal best is now 21.35 and this is the best time for a local female athlete. Jo is the mother of four children and she with husband Greg are great supporters of the event. The family has clocked up over 450 runs between them all. Youngest son Rhys is undergoing special coaching and is showing promise as an outstanding steeple chase runner.  

See you all next week at 5pm.

There were great running conditions for this evening’s run.  Although, some of the 57 starters suggested that it may have been better to stay on the beach.

Personal best times were recorded by Alice, Lucy and Graeme Hincksman, Margaret Dickinson, Nina McLachlin, Mollie and Katie Kennedy.

Dan Lloyd-Jones ran a sensational time of 17.59 to equal his personal best in the 5 kilometres.

Liza Martini  recorded her 100 appearance in the event.  She is one of the 7 competitors who started in the first event back on 7 February 2007.  She was instrumental in the promotion of the event and if it wasn’t for her contribution the event may not be the success it is today.

We had visitors from all parts of the country and they spoke highly of the event and expressed the wish to come back next time they were in the locality. We look forward to welcoming you all back. 

Wishing you all a happy, healthy year ahead, here's hoping 2017 is the year of achieving any fitness goals you set for yourselves. See you all next Wednesday at 5pm.
