Weston Creek Half Marathon
All times and places have now been amended. And there is a complete list of results here.
90. David Webster M55 1:39:06 4:41/k
93. Michelle Wells W35 1:39:15 4:42
103. Mick Horan M45 1:41:58 4:50
109. Charlie McCormack W40 1:42:43 4:52
110. Geoff Moore M55 1:42:43 4:52
114. Annette Sugden W45 1:43:41 4:54
121. Jeni Greenland W30 1:44:43 4:57
153. Thea Zimpel 1:53:38 5:23
154. Rae Palmer W60 1:53:50 5:23
174. Caroline Campbell W65 1:57:25 5:34
201. Peter Hogan M60 2:02:32 5:48

That's an excellent W65 time for Caroline: sub 2 hours. And a very good come-back run by Rae.

Relay Teams
The relay names don’t always tell the story, but my educated guess is
1. RUN FAT-BOY RUN FFM 1:35:24 4:31 is Amanda, Katie & Ken. Ken would make a good “fat-boy”, but needs the shorts to go with the name. 4:31 per km – I must run with them next time!

3. SPEEDY GOSLINGS FF 1:43:59 4:55 would have to be Jeni & Rachelle. Jeni continued on to finish the whole run only 44 seconds behind Rachelle. The first time the results were released this team was given fourth in a slower time; this has since been fixed!! So they are now officially the winning "FF" team.

8. STREWTH AND TWINKLE FF 1:53:33 5:23 must be Ruth & David. “FF”? I thought our training group was hiding a number of secrets; David's secret is out!
