It's been a long hard road


Words escape me when I think of how far the MIDIRS running team have come the past six months (personally I reckon over 200 miles in training…………WOW!). As I wait to start my last training session and with only four days to go until the 10k run, I feel moved to quote the immortal words of the great man himself ........... ............”Didn’t they do well”

Well I suppose Brucie’s words are a little understated, I’d put it a little stronger, we all did BLOODY WELL!!

Everyone has put 100% into the training and met their respective challenges with determination and resolve. It makes me very proud to be part of this team and you should all be congratulated on reaching the finish line (even before the actual race). Some people attain their goals in different ways but Julie falling pregnant is probably the most obscure one (well they do say that fertility is improved with fitness!).
So without further ado………

Congratulations - Adam McGahern

Very well done - Ann-marie Kelly

Gold star - Cara Gordon

Order of merit - Charlotte Robinson

Passed with distinction - Judith Sirr

Nice one – Julie Rogers

Good on ya - Michelle Brumby

Pat on the back - Steve Clayton (Coach)

Bravo - Vanessa Avery


Is that everyone?.................Oh yeah, I forgot…..…..Cheers - Andy Fisher (next year the marathon – now that’s a really good idea!)
