My apology to any one I have missed.

In the club run at Lake Canobolas 64 starters crossed the start line with Steve Wensley (28:24) declared the overall winner after completing the 5km distance. Top three places in each distance were:

2.5km. Female – Tanya Connolly (14:01), Lily Bangert (14:53) and Gill Hay (17:14).

Male – Ricky Bangert (10:11), Elliot Bangert (11:43) and Fred Bangert (12:25).

5km. Female – Ella Lamrock (25:26), Lily Craig (25:49) and Dani Syme (27:19).

Male – Jackson Boucher (22:56), Noah Lamrock (23:23) and Hugh Daintith (23:40).

7.5km. Male – Gareth Thomas (38:49) and John Moss (49:10).

10km. Female – Jess Quinn (57:20) and Kim Jarvis (65:48).

Male – Chris Brown (52:05), Alex Irwin (52:07) and Mike Cooper (52:57).

Apparently there is an inquiry pending as one of the runners, (only name given was Kim), baulked at a water hazard and may be penalised 5 championship points.

On another wet Wednesday night 30 runners again braved the conditions, with first timer Lisa Barnett (11:11) being the fastest, while Jack Daintith (11:52) was the fastest of the guys. The overall winner was Michelle Whiteley (16:40), who backed up from her weekend effort at Dubbo. Personal Bests were set by Danielle Klingberg 1m6s and Gill Hay 19s.

The Sunday club run is at Bargwanna Road starting at 9am.
