Heidi: Orange Half Marathon 102 minutes. Woo-Hoo! Congratulations on completing your first Half Marathon! And 102 minutes on a tough course is very good. You could expect to be at least 5 minutes quicker on Canberra courses. The half marathon was part of  the "Orange Colour City Running Festival". So make sure you wear the orange souvenir T-shirt at your next run with us; I hope the T-shirt will be orange coloured.

Some Orange Results
Scott McTaggart first 1:10.08
Heidi Johnston 1:42.38 fourth W30-39. Heidi you are so young! I thought you'd be 40 by now!
Jim White 1:45.29 won the M60s. Well done Heidi, ahead of Jim is many people's primary goal.
