The Launceston Running Club held their inaugural Give me Five for Kids fancy dress fun run today held in all three divisions. Almost all competitors donned an outfit of sorts to show their support for the charity and of course have a lot of fun while they were at it.
The O’Byrne family managed a rare feat to have all three division winners triumph on the day. Austin, Ivy and Thomas managed victory in divisions 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Many other runners were handicapped from some unusual costumes to say the least. We’ll let the photos that make it to our Facebook page tell more of the story.
A special thanks to our sponsors for the race who provided some fabulous prizes for our podium winners, best costumes and the many spot prizes handed out post race at the presentation; Paints Plus, Southern Cross Austereo, CD Centre Kings Meadows, Natures Works Meadow Mews, Sports First Mowbray. Also thanks to Allison for her great work on the BBQ.
