This evening we had 32 competitors in the event with 5 personal best times.  In the 2-kilometres Eli Melgaard improved by 34 seconds.  Evelyne Carton ran an excellent time to improve by 2 minutes.  In the 3-kilometres Chloe Tangney improved by 13 seconds and Meg Edenborough improved by 8 seconds.  Bernie Lambert, fresh from her half marathon, improved her 4-kilometres time by 98 seconds.

 

The highlight of the event was the awarding of the 30-run shirt to Lewis Gunn.  The Gunn boys and mother Sara are an impressive athletic family, who finish well up in their chosen distance at each appearance at the event.

 

We welcomed Ryan Bissell to his first run with the group.   He is a new resident to the district, and he expects to make more appearances.

 

Congratulations to three Broulee runners, who performed with distinction at the Gold Coast half-marathon last weekend.  Bernie Lambert ran the event in 1 hour and 59 minutes to come 3^rd in her age group.  Michael Lambert was not far behind Bernie in a time of 2 hours and 2 minutes.  Gill Stapleton also ran an excellent time of 2 hours and 9 minutes.
