BBQ Stakes Wednesday 13 th April 2011
Doubling up today were Nick Walshe and Brian Wenn from the Runners Shop, Nick ran a speedy 20 minutes flat from the backmarkers start, and by Helen Larmour and her sister who ran together all the way, Helen letting her sister take the earlier place card.
First today was Eddie Adams at 39:55 across the line, Hugh Moore crossed the line at 40:06. Binn Dhang, about 7th across the line at 39:41, being the winner, with 24 runs and 3 wins.
He had a recent win, and was hoping to win again the following week, but was estopped by time keeping duties, but made it to the winning podium today.
He felt mildly confident before the start of today's run but mentioned the cool weather not being to his liking.
Running today were Roger Pilkington, ran the Canberra Marathon in 3:52:53, Raymond Chao, with a Marathon time of 3:50:03, Talwar Singh, Half Marathon time of 1:56:17. Caroline Campbell ran today after marshalling for the Canberra Marathon, and telling some appalling stories about the hazards involved in marshalling, and length of time at the same marshalling spot. Ian Hore ran the Half Marathon in a time which I won't mention, and came in last at today's event. Andrew Blyton's marathon time was 3:28:08
Apologies to those I've not mentioned.
Passing by the start area was Brett Odgers, a former runner, who said hello and spent a few minutes talking to those present.
Brett has health problems, so does not run now, but we talked also about Robin Poke, well known to many Canberrans.
