Oh ya! Take that Russel Oliver!


YMCA Peterborough Half M Feb 22 09, Brendan Kavanaugh finished 25th out of field plus 400 in an amazing time of 1 hr 28 mins. Boasting a 4:11 pace. Fifteen minutes prior to proceeding to the start line white outs occurred. We had the luck of the Irish standing with us. BK had his lucky cell phone & suddenly the sun broke out. It was still windy and road conditions were moderately slippery.On the far right in the picture is Bill Steinburg from Barrie who ran an amazing 3:57 pace for a time of 1:22:55 earning 8th overall. Keith Lascelles finished 51st overall with a time of 1:31:56 while yours truly finished 52nd overall with a time of 1:32:13. Congrats to all Barrie Runners. The chili after the race was rather tasty. Hey, Jurgen what were you doing out on the race course running the opposite way in your street clothes for ?
Other notable results were Mark Harrison (1:36), Mary Mitchell (1:39), Rick McLean and Jim Tuttle in 1:53, Mike Murphy (1:54) and Tracey McLean in 2:29. Congrats to all.

  1. What a great event! When you look past the weather, the course was a perfectly flat out-and-back. Well organised and certainly do-able if you are missing the racing scene during the winter.
