Well done to Dave V, Cris P and Laurie C for their wins in the respective categories of race 3. The detailed results have been posted in the usual spot so make sure you check them out. I should also take the opportunity to mention the great efforts of some of our runners in recent weeks. Kelly, Paul and Dave Madden all took on the Canberra Marathon - and won - and Dave Vlotman and Keith once again proved they are Ironmen in Port Macquarie. Well done to you all!

If you visit our results page you'll find an updated spreadsheet and progressive tally of our 2008 race results. Congratulations to Dave, Cris and Paul for winning the top points in the Men's, Women's and Handicap groupings respectively.
Also, after some consultation around the club this year's trivia night has been removed from our calendar. Although a success as a fundraiser, the night was intended primarily as a social event for members of the Joggers. Although there has been a loyal group of members who have attended this event over the past three years it has been non-members who have made up the bulk of the numbersand so it can't really be considered a success.

Race 1 was run and won toady in perfect conditions. Congratulations to Cris, Dave and Kelly for their respective wins in the women's, men's and handicap competitions. You will find the results posted on the results 2008 page. This year the page will feature the current top ten with a downloadable excel file that'll contain the full results and race times. Today our AGM was also held and, for those of you who couldn't attend you'll be surprised to know that the same crowd held onto their "executive" positions following a close vote. Our 2008 calendar was also ratified with a change to the race 3 date.

Keep running, RAB

Take a look in the photo galleries and you'll see that I've dug up a bunch more photos from the past couple of years. Happy browsing. If you like a shot of yourself and would like a larger version of the image let me know and I'll send it your way.

Cheers, RAB

Our first race for 2008 is quickly approaching and will be held along with the AGM on 10 February 2008. Currently it appears it will be an event free AGM with no issues yet raised for discussion. Our calendar is however a standing issue so please consider it before the day. Already the ANZAC Day weekend has been highlighted as an issue and the likely change to be considered is moving it forward one weekend to the 20th. Finally, please (finally) find attached an excel file with the full results for the 2007 handicap series.

Keep up the training troops, RAB

Happy New Year everybody. Now's the time to start planning to work off all those extra calories you consumed over the holiday period. So, you'll need to familiarise yourself with our calendar of events for 2008. Race 1 is scheduled for 10 February and it will be followed by our AGM. If you have any items for the AGM please let me know ASAP. See you at Balmoral!
