4/9-10 Race Report

I have three words to describe this weekend's results... WAHOOO WAHOOO WAHOOO (okay, that's more like one word repeated 3x, but oh well)!!! In descending order of distance:
  • The NOT an 8-person team (aka The Endurance Junkies) comprised of Tim, Brad B., Brian, and 3 others killed the ultra division (and I believe the overall competition) at the Palmetto 200, setting a new course record for a 6-person team. The ran a 23:16, which equates to an average pace of 6:45!
  • Mike Chappell ran a 1:30:07 at the Flying Pirate Half, which is a huge PR and earned him 3rd in his age group (and 20th overall)! (results)
  • Keith was 4th overall (1st AG) at the Mountains-to-Sea 12 Miler, running a 5min PR! Greg Jackson (21st OA) and Jerry Beckman (30th OA) also ran great races! (results)
  • Devin Swann and Tim Surface were 1st and 3rd respectively at the Tar Heel 10 Miler. And, by my count, Laura Frey and Jennifer Curtin were 2nd in their age groups, and Katie Leger was 3rd in hers! (results)
  • Rita Beard was the 1st female in the 10K at the Cary Road Race, running a PR in the process. David Meeker (1st OA) and Kimberly Fowler (1st Female, 3rd OA) followed her lead in the 5K... in fact, the podium saw a lot of orange singlets with Tom Karnatz and David Meyer both grabbing 1st in their age groups! (5K results; 10K results)
  • James (3rd OA), Sean (1st AG), and I (1st female) continued the trend at the Kay Brewer Memorial 5K... and thank you Oyler and Nikki for coming out and cheering! (results)
Ok y'all, that's INSANE! AWESOME JOB everyone and CONGRATS! Sorry if I missed anyone... oh, and I got 2 text messages this weekend from 2 different runners listed above telling me how AMAZING compression socks... and I heard at least 2 other "recent converts" sounding like me rambling on about the benefits of this product with "real testimonials"... I LOVE IT!!! When I finally graduate... :-)
