Tomorrow will see some of the club head out to Forbes for the Forbes Charity fun run with 5k and 10k runs available for the keen runners and a more sociable 2k for the walkers and the little ones. (You can still enter on the day between 7am & 8.30am)  At home for those who don’t venture out to Forbes, Jack Brabham will be the place to be, for anything from 1 to 4 laps (7k).

Last Sunday saw 66 runners and walkers out at Gosling Creek doing their thing with Luke Thorley leading the way completing the 4.6k run in 21:28 to pick up the overall win.

Fastest runner over the 4.6k was Nathan Sutherland (18:31), while the consistent Amber Rich was the quickest female (20:21). Mitchell Cooper again was out fast to win the 2.3k in 10:03 while Emily Pell took the ladies win in 12:31.Brad Simmons ran away with the 9.6k completing this in 39:47 to lead home the 21 runners doing long run. Naomi Sunderland with a 53:17 was the quickest of the girls. It was great to see Craig Penrose extending himself on the longer run and finishing in the top half of the field.
