Training has started for the Bay Boars and they would welcome more new faces on Tuesday & Thursday training sessions. Again full details are available on their Facebook page.

A very warm and windy a ernoon greeted our runners this week, the headwind on the return run proved very challenging. We welcomed Ian Kennedy to the group, Ian has moved to the area to live and will hopefully become a regular par cipant. A special men on must go to Daniel Beby who completed his 200th run. Daniel is an outstanding runner and has competed against the best in the world in the Hawaiian Ironman. Daniel joined the group on the 17 June 2015 and along with his wife Michelle and children Riley, Mitchell and Ashley have been regular par cipants over the years. It has been wonderful watching his young family grow up and all become strong runners in their own right. With Mike and Robyn taking a well deserved break, we thank Richard and David for helping out with the me keeping. We are very fortunate to have so many wonderful volunteers who are always ready to help out. See you all next Wednesday at 5pm.
