RUBBISH 5K TRAIL RESULTS


23 Runners turned out for the 3rd in the series of the Rubbish 5 K's .
Once again we were blessed with bright sunshine but a blustery wind made for hard going at times, even so there were some new Personnel Bests along the way.
For the first time in the history of the event we had a dead heat for first place!
After much judging of finish line photo's- OK well, really in truth I only had my own eyes to split the two lunging runners on the line, so I declared Steve McLean and Steve Wilkinson = 1st in 18.27. Yes STEVE WON!
3rd was M Goddard in 19.17. It was good to see the return of Brian Gow to running finishing 4th in 19.42, Simon Tobin was next in nursing two broken ribs.
First Lady was Tracey Peters in 21.02, she finished just behind Terry Bolland who had one of his best runs for a long time smashing is Rubbish P.B. by almost 5 mins.
Other good runs of note were; Paul Cain getting back into good form after injury, P Talbot who took 45 sec off his P.B. Rob Cosgrove 8 sec P.B. and Donna Spencer [ 4th Lady] 2 sec P.B.
Also at 71 years of age super Vet Steve James impressed with 22.55.
Next event will be a Handicap on the 3rd Wed of Sept at 7 pm prompt.
Thanks to Brian for results, Sarah,Rob, Sue and Norm for help marshaling, Cheers :]
