Mel Williams was excited to take out her first club win today in the ScottSmith Orthodontics 8k in Longford.  I was even told that todays run included a 5k PB for her too!  Ricky Markham grabbed second and Leanne Thomas took out third spot. 

The fastest male was Ricky Barnewall in a time of 27:08 and the fastest female was Anna O’Donnell in a time of 37:03.

It was great to race sponsor Scott Smith also run today 🙂

In the 2.5k short course Jono Hill was the first over 18 home while backward finisher, Thomas Cooper was the first under 18.  The second place went to Kurt Geier and the third to Eloise Cooper.  The fastest male was Ben Frost  and the fastest female was Mia Goody.

The 1.5k junior race was won by Millie Sertori from Dillion McHugh and Noah Webb.  The fastest male was Archie Rogers and the fastest female was Annabelle Pike.
