Although there were perfect conditions, the number were down in Wednesday’s Broulee Run/walk because of the start of football training. Nevertheless, there was quality in the 42 participants as 9 bettered their previous best times.
In the 2 kilometres Rocco Lopresti, Bruce Allison and Peter Johnsen did personal best times. In the 3.5 kilometres David West improved for the second week in a row. Laura Lopresti did a double for the family with her improvement of 41 seconds and Regina Knobel clipped 5 seconds off her time.
In the 5 kilometres Angus Murphy and Bridget Lunn pushed one another to the limit and improved by 2 minutes over this distance. Mirella Granata improved by 9 seconds and the ever-improving Jason Domeny reduced his time by 28 seconds.
The star of the night was Ross Wilson (pictured), who received his 30-run shirt. He first started back at the beginning of 2008 and only recently come back to the event. This is one of the attractions of the event as it is never to late too come back and see that your times are still on record.
