Brooks Waterfront 5k Series, 3 November 2009

By Todd Stevens   

One hundred and sixty one competitors fronted for the 14th race in the Brooks 5k Waterfront Series. And with The Loaded Hog Bar open again, competitors were able to enjoy a free re-hydrating beer afterwards. The weather was warm with a mild northerly, in real contrast to last Tuesday where we were blasted by a cold southerly. 

Tonight we were treated to something special: Champion athlete Kate McIlroy raced and her time of 17min 8sec (half way split was an amazing 8min 20sec!) was a new women's Waterfront 5k record (and our records go back six years!). She was 11 seconds faster than the time by Sarah Christie in 2008. Kate is now one of NZ's leading triathletes, after a running career which included winning the 2005 World Mountain Running Championships and representing NZ in the 3k steeplechase at the 2006 Commonwealth Games. 

Cary Chaffee was first male tonight in a very fast time of 15min 14sec. He was chased home by Mikael Andersson, a visitor from Sweden. 

The Yellow shirt holders again won the walking race. Tim Dutton recorded 29min 38sec while Terri Grimmett (31min 6sec) recorded another win in the women's walk. 

Tonight we crowned a new Women's Yellow Shirt Series Leader. Jenn Bonnett has taken over from Olympian Nyla Carroll. Well done, Jenn! Jenn is one of five competitors that have done all 14 races so far this series. The other four are Simon Holmes, Richard Simes, Patrick Te Tau and Neil Price. Very impressive. 

And remember the participation prize: This will reward the eight participants who complete the most races from 15 September to 15 December. The top three will receive a Brooks prize pack valued at $200 and the next five will receive a Brooks prize pack valued at $100. Thanks to our sponsors: Brooks provided a pair of shoes tonight as a spot prize for one lucky competitor, while the The Loaded Hog Bar provided the free drinks and 4 x $25 bar vouchers. Lifestyles Sports provided a $50 voucher as a spot prize.
