Sunday 18th October 2009 - The Annual "Kelly's Canter" Runnign Race Palmerston
I slung on the running shoes yesterday arvo and ran in Kelly's Canter in Palmerston,the blast upa nd around the monument on top of the hill. Having been up and down that hill more times than i can remember as a kid growing up in Palmy it is always good fun as well as a bit of a lung and leg burner. Last year I had a pretty good result and was back for more. This year the $300 prize for 1st man and !st women attracted a few faster club runners and people from about the place. Anyway had a pretty solid blast up the hill and came in 2nd Open man and 6th overall fro a field of about 50 runners, not quite managing to snap up the $$ - it was a young club runner from town who took the win quite convincingly. Anyway a good solid blast on the legs.
