27 April 2022

 After consultation with many of the stake holders, it is the decision that we are to use course B for the time being to conduct the Wednesday run. The overall consideration is safety of the many participants. The track is still wet and narrow. The prime problem is the many exposed tree roots that could trip a runner or walker at any time. Given that there are participants from the very young to the more mature, our first consideration is their safety.

 

This is not the first change of course as in the beginning the start was at the toilet block near the boat ramp and turned around opposite Carters Shops.  It was changed to the current configuration once the bike path was completed.  This has been used for around 750 runs.  Should there be major improvements to this very popular walking track we will return!!!

 

We have had Elite athletes participate at our event and the records of Matt Johnsen (15.51) and Jaylah Hancock-Cameron (17.46) over the 5 kilometres may remain in the history books.  It is hoped that both will come and test themselves over the 4 kilometres to show the rest of us mortals how it is done!!

 

To show that we have made the correct decision the rain returned this evening!

Mia Atkin 11.45

Eli Melgaard 13.47
