Tonight, was the first test of the New Course at peak time with lots of visitors and sunny weather.  Parking was the major problem and negotiating the traffic of people on the bridge over the Candlagan Creek.  The event went off very successfully with outstanding numbers and results.

There were lots of old faces, who previously contested the old course.  They welcomed not having to run up and down the treacherous knotty path.

 

Samson Kennedy added the 2-kilometres record to his 3-kilometres record.  He joins Lily McIntosh as the joint holders of the male and female records for the 2-& 3-kilometres records.  Outstanding young athlete Thomas Menzies Stegbauer knocked 40 seconds from the record he set for the 4-kilometres last week.

 

In the 2-kilometres personal best time were recorded by Emma Holland and Emma Kennedy.

 

We acknowledged the magnificent achievement of Andrew McPherson who ran his 300^th run this evening.  Andrew and his family have been great supporters of the event and his wife Michelle and son Declan, and daughter Nina add another 234 runs to the family total.

 

Congratulations also went to Emma Kennedy having achieved her 30^th run with the group.  Father Anthony, son Samson and daughter Mollie add another 132 runs to her total.
