Broulee Runners April 22nd 2020

One month into the new normal whereby people can run a measured distance over 2, 3.5 or 5 kilometres at their own convenience and in their own location and have it recorded in the Broulee Runners archives. The question has been asked about individual personal best times being accepted and acknowledged as such.

Since the beginning of the event we have accepted the times and distances submitted by individuals on face value when starting from the anchor in the weekly race, even though some have been questionable. It is about having a go and if you achieve, we like it to be acknowledged. Given the present circumstances all times are accepted willingly on face value and are recorded as such. However, no formal acknowledgement of personal best times will be mentioned in the weekly report, until we go back to the old normal. The new improvements are willingly accepted and marked against the individual’s personal records.

NOTE: Comments were TRIALED - in the end it failed as humans will be humans and it turned into a pile of merde; only contributed to by just a handful who did little to add to the conversation of the issue at hand.
