It started with a bang - literally. The 30 year anniversary compelled the reminiscent organisers to start the race with a shotgun (of sorts) as it had 30 years earlier. Very brave considering a bomb scare was just winding down only a block away from the start. Janet Crawford was 7th overall (2nd female) in 1:44:05, Kerry Matthews was 29th overall in 1:59:20 (damn stitch!), Andrew Smith was 32nd overall in 2:00:52 and Gina McGeaver was 44= overall in 2:11:40 in this 24km race.

Molenberg SUB Series 21km race
The pain of running a half marathon in a great time of 1:46:17 was worth it, when Nic Cross got to shake the hand of her idol, Sarah Ulmer at the finish line. Well done Nic.

Hutt River Trail 60km Ultramarathon
It started pleasantly enough....for the first 35km and then the infamous Southerly kicked in for the final 25km, bringing with it some heavy rain. Although Andrew Shelley was able to better his last years time to finish in 7:14:49, he was a little disappointed. Perhaps he was saving himself for the Barfoot and Thomson 100km walk that was in a months time.
