FINALLY

Well the Gun Run results took forever to be released, it was pretty frustrating waiting for them!
(apparently there were issues with them - I think the problem was more likely for the 21.2km event, but whatever).

So with out further ado, this is how I did officially...

**Race Results**
Name: JANE WEIDEMAN
Race: 10k
Position: 204 (out of 2131 and 56th female)
Time: 53:28

This is an action pic of me doing the Gun Run. I am not sure how far into the race that was, but I think it was 3-4km in... I have never seen myself running before. LOL. --->

Here are a few of the results...

  4. Well bare in mind that it's generally the oldies and fatties doing the 10km :) - the fit and able bodied people do the proper race (21.1) so the competition is much stronger there...

    Plus I wouldn't have even been able to finish that, so you are way ahead of me!

    So if you want to make yourself feel good do an easy race or 2 with us plodders.
