SYDNEY FRONTRUNNERS 8K team WIN Maroubra Fun run.
Maroubra – Sunday 14 October – It’s normally a hot day but surprise, surprise it stayed a cool 20C. The 8K runners geared up for the hills of Maroubra and tackled every step like sea eagles flying towards some tasty morsels. Lead by Matt W (29m 34s) the five members chased each other up and down the hills in order to retain the 8K trophy which the club has now won for many years. 1012 entrants took part in this – the biggest ever Maroubra Fun run! Congrats to all team members – Matt W, Brett O, Dennis J, Jim B & Chris DC. Zoe K was a scratching.
Following the run members enjoyed a quick but refreshing dip in the Pacific and a yummy brunch at a local restaurant with some Atheltics East members.
The 4K team comprised of Andrew K, Matt L, Jeannie S, Priscilla, Robert F, Tony F and Wayne M performed admirably but were beaten by a team whose average age was below 20!!! Well done runners and thanks to everyone who participated in this the final fun run of 2007.
