Bev Barnes and Rob Watt have recently joined the Point Grey Track Club and have been rapidly improving. Both ran personal best times at the First Half Half Marathon on Sunday. Rob Watt ran 1:29:04 while fighting off a cold. Bev Barnes ran a 2 minute personal best of 1:46:02. She continues to run faster month after month by following a consistent training program. 

A few years ago she was running a 2:26 half marathon. A fellow competitor asked her, “Bev, what will you do when you plateau and stop getting faster?” She said, “I’ve never thought about it...it got me thinking about how much faster I can still go! I could be the champ when I’m 80. The journey is 90% of why I train so hard. It’s so rewarding when you get results."
