March 3k Time Trial
With a record
field of 34 runners the Pat Carroll Running Group is very much
alive and if I can steel a slight phrase from the movie The
Castle, "THE VIBE" within the group is electric to say the
least.
If we can keep
the momentum growing, along with a healthy group philosophy, we
will all be in for a hell of a fun ride leading into Gold Coast
2005. Success breeds Success.
"Queensland,
beautiful one day, perfect the next", and I tell you what, that
pretty summed up the conditions at the March 3K Time Trial. The
lightest of drizzles during the run was refreshing and amazing
performances resulted.
And they were:
Alison 13.34 down from 15.30
Christine
11.58 down from 12.19
Claire 12.22 down from 12.37
Darrell
12.47 down from 13.07
David Y
9.47 down from 9.57
David
L 9.55 down from 9.59
Glenda
10.23 down from 10.27
Jan 12.10 down from 12.29
Jodie
10.06 down from 10.18
Mark K
10.09 down from 10.11
Mary-Jane
13.52 down from 17.00
Phil K
10.54 down from 11.07
Tory
12.31 down from 13.05
There were also
some near personal best performances by: Helen, Verity, Peter,
Nicholas and Theresa.
Welcome to our
virgin Time Trialers: Sara/ Kath/ Karyn/ Danielle/ Hannah/ Bevan/
Matthew/ Fred/ Debra/ Linda/ Natasha and Justin.
The "Athlete
of the month" award: One element I
often take into consideration when determining the monthly award
is the commitment shown by an individual to both the group and
also their own ability to apply themselves during sessions.
I could tell
that Darrell was rapt with his performance this morning,
breaking 13 min in the process. Darrell has been a group member
for some time (must be 12 months, if not more) and to come out
and run a PB after there has been quite a length of time between
drinks shows great character. I therefore have great pleasure in
awarding Darrell Jardine the Athlete of the Month
award for March.
Darrell

Thanks to
everyone who attended the March Time Trial. If you walked away
from the session half as enriched as I did you would have
experienced a great feeling.
