Wednesday 8 May was a great night for running and celebrating the success of a number of people. There were 53 starters and we welcomed Matty Woods and his family Mirra and Teeka Boon to their first run with the group.
In the 2 kilometres Peter Johnsen did a personal best. In the 3.5 kilometres Vicki Whitter and Makayla Wade improved. In the 5 kilometres it was a great night for the Hadley family with Paris and Matt recording personal best times
David McCann recorded his 200th run this evening. David had his first run back on 31 August 2011. He is a regular having competed in all three events and is regularly helps out as a starter. Peter Johnsen completed his 30th run. He is head of the family of 5, who have participated in the event over a long period of time. Laura Lopresti completed her 30thrun and she is the inspiration for 5 other members of her family.
We were fortunate to have Daniel Beby and Julie De Ernsted join us this evening. Daniel competed in the Port Macquarie Ironman and again qualified to race the Hawaii Ironman in October. This event is regarded as the World Championship of long-distance Triathlon. Julie completed her first half Ironman at the same event and her performance was outstanding.
