Trainers Annual Award Winner Is…….
The weather was perfect for Y Striders annual walk/run along the river from Bicton to Fremantle. After a 7.45 warm up with trainer Deb we were off walking, running and chatting and eager to get back to breakfast in Ros’ beautiful garden.
Everyone contributes and as usual there was more than enough to eat for the over 45 enjoying the garden atmosphere. Then the time came for the main reason we were there – the trainers annual award to the club member who they believe has shown “the enthusiasm and commitment to training in order to achieve a personal best.”
A quiet, modest and consistent attendant over the last 26 years, Leonie has participated in 130 fun runs and other events and background support in the club. After illness earlier in the year she worked at building up her training to again run with her running buddies at club. Her determined dedication was noticed by our trainers and she is an inspiration to many. Congratulations Leonie!
