BBQ Stakes 6th September 2012

A reminder to those who use electric blankets, check your blankets in the mornings to make sure they are turned off and are safe.  An unfortunate fire occurred today, due to troubles with the electric blankets at a BBQ runner's place recently.

Also check your fire alarms have new batteries and are working properly.  The fire alarms saved this person's place from worse damage.

The BBQ Stakes today saw 57 runners today, with Gabeielle and Tim Wright both returning for the run.

If I am right, they have returned from their holiday in England.Daniel Buckley time kept today, his seventh stint at those duties.  He has now entered the Canberra Times Fun Run for this year and has been given the number 29 for his chest.

He has also been in training for a half marathon soon.

 Terry Levings has now remeasured the course following rhe changes ar the top of Waldock Street.  Terry is an accredited course measurer with extensive training and experience.  Terry was also today's winner, having crossed the line at 39:57,  with George finishing second and Lisa ?  coming  in third.

The team made up of the others won the team trophy today.

Thanks for the update Doug, great to see that so many runners turned up again today. Although the conditions were much better than yesterday, it still requires dedication to attend.

I hope that you stay warm!
