Congratulation to everyone who ran, jogged and walked at the Sri Chinmoy Maribyrnong River Run on Sunday. Despite the forecasts of wintery weather, conditions were still and cool; perfect for fast times. Results and images from the day are now available.
The main event of the day was the 12km run which was won by Solomon Melekote in a time of 45:14 followed by Adsam Horsburgh in 46:21 and Fergus Koochew in 47:05. In fact Solomon was running so well that he overtook the whole 8km field on his 2nd lap of the course.
Line honours in the women's event was taken out by Deanne Orton in 53:06, with Sally Kuhlman and Kirsten Horsburgh filling the other podium positions in 55:06 and 58:46.
We would like to give special mention to the evergreen Bill Page, who finished first in the 80+ age category, in a speedy time of 1:08:33; and at the other end of the spectrum to Michael Swinnerton, who took out the 15-17 age category, in 50:11, to finish 6th overall.
The 2 lap 8km course was won by Sasha Durakovic in 30.20 with Stuart Elliot 31:09 and David Clark 32:33 filling out the minor places. In the women's event Martanne Vass crossed the line first in 37:14 followed Esther Ton in 42:08, and Carolyn O'Dea in 42:18.
The standout performance amongst the age group runners would have to be Connor Hoekstra who finished first in the under 15 age category in a super fast 36:20 placing him 12th overall.
The 4km event boasted the largest field with a large contingent of runners from JBS Swift who took on the 1 lap challenge.
The overall winner was Mark Decampo in 13:15 with Nick Machale 14:49 and Brent Radoslovic 15:16 filling the other podium places. The women's 4km race was won by Jenny Denouden in 19:48, trailed by Sharron Clark 20:46 and Lauren Denouden in 21:08.
Again the standout went to an up and coming runner, Anthony Crews, who aged 10, completed the 4km course in a speedy 16:58 to finish 9th overall!
Our next event is the Sri Chinmoy Williamstown Foreshore Run on Sunday December 12 at Williamstown Beach. Choose either the 5km or 10km distance and take a dip in the bay to cool down afterwards. Enter online.
We look forward to seeing you all at one of our upcoming events in 2011.
