5k

Jalil seems to be in shape for this year's Sylvesterlauf on Ringstrasse. Christina jumps to no. 3 in the 5k top 100, Virginie misses no. 4 by 1 second.

Today's September 5k time trial was also Stephen LLOYD's farewell run - he will leave us to go to Belgium. All the best, Stephen !

There were some discussions about the starting point for this race - we probably will have to remeasure the course once more. Interesting duel between the two Julias; it is a shame that the IAEA-Julia will only be around for one month. Maria-Julia's baby is due in a few weeks but she walked 1 mile, nevertheless.

The VICRunners personnel landscape is constantly changing !
New IAEA staff Matthew will probably be able to break a few records in future as can be seen by his excellent 5k time today.
As partner of Maria-Julia, Peter has been "promoted" to family member as of today, and he will from now on fight for VICRunners Cup points as well.

Again enthusiastic acceptance of the new 5k distance and many PRs ! We will try to add at least one of these events to our autumn schedule. Gulab let his wife run this time and was babysitting in the meantime.

This was Robert Zischg's farewell run: he will go to Chicago for some years. It was great to have him around, twice winner of the VICRunners Cup, good competition for our top runners. All the best, Robert !
Proposed by Mario and Gregor, today's 5km run was a premiere (1 lap + 1 mile), and it certainly will find its place in the VICRunners schedule.
